3 Months Post Op - NSVs abound!

Hi All,

Today is my 3 month follow up appointment at TWH. I've lost just over 65 pounds. I feel amazing!

Some NSVs:

• This morning I weighed 214 lbs. The last time I saw this number on the scale was my wedding day in 1996 (Take THAT ex-husband!! lol)
• I am wearing my sz 18 "I will keep these because ONE day God willing I will fit into them again" jeans and they are too big!
• Yesterday I tried on sz 14 jeans and they fit!
• I have a collar bone! I know!!!!! I keep showing all my friends and family. They look at me like I'm insane but it's so beautiful!
• I have a boney bum suddenly

Best decision I've EVER made!

This board is a godsend,

Tricia

Awesome work Tricia! I'm sure you do feel amazing, I can't wait to be in your shoes!!

FEEL GREAT DOESNT IT ????   I always say ....these things are sooo much more important than what some silly scale is saying !!!

Congratulations these are all great achievements. I hope you have continued success.

Congratulations Tricia! Good for you.i can't wait to feel the same way you are! I'm having my surgery on March 16th alsi with Dr.  Timothy jackson. How is his work.? How is his personality? 

Keep up the great job that you are doing! 

Dr. Jackson is absolutely wonderful. He's got amazing bed side manner, he's very polite and respectful. I've been blessed, had no serious complications beside some nausea and my scars are nice and small and healing very well. You're lucky to have him!

Oh that's great! I feel much less nervous now. I'm getting more and more excited every day!

Thanks so midi for your feedback,  that helps a lot! 

Dr Jackson is very nice. My scars are also healing nicely. I've been fortunate to have zero complication to this point.

All the best on the 16th!

Thank you TK1966!

Hi Tricia,

Sorry to bother you again.  I was just speaking to thenurse from TWH.  I asked her  if the surgeon will tell me afterwards how much protein  and calories I'm supposed to consume each day. She said that everything is stated in the binder we received. Is this true,  will Dr. Jackson not tell me how much protein  and calories to take in each day?

Thanks for your help!
