3 mt post op appt
I few weeks ago I had my 3mth post op appt. It went great. Dr pond and Dr G are so happy with my wt loss at that time I had lost 71lbs and Dr Pond said that is what they tipically expect from females at 6mths out. He said my wt loss is what a male pt losses in the first three months. The only bad news was they wanted me to have a egd because they thaught I had a stricture and needed to be dialated. I was asked what my wt loss goal was and I said 170lbs and Dr said I needed to lower it to 140-150lbs because that is were he thinks I will be.
A week after my appt I was eating a little piece of meat and got it stuck at the opening of my pouch and had to have a emercency scope to remove the food. I had it done at a local hospital and Dr Weston said he had to dialate the opening it was almost closed.
Sorry I haven't been posting much I just have been so full of energy I have been enjoying my new life. I am 21 lbs from being in the centry club and only 111 lbs from my goal. I am so glad I done this. I had to finelly go buy new scrubs and can fit into a size 3x commfy I was in a 6x well a very tight 5x. I have finelly reached size 26 jeans and they are a little lose. I just can't belive I am wearing clothes I haven't wore since 2002 it is such a great feeling.

It sounds like you have been busy! I'm sorry you had a stricture! I was fortunate and haven't had anything like that. But it sounds like it was minor and you are doing well.
Congrats on all of your accomplishments! Doesn't it feel really good to be able to write them all down and the list goes on and on! You just wait you will have an even longer list of accomplishments! You are doing great!!!
Congrats!!!
