6 Weeks Post-Op Today! :-)
Six weeks ago today, I had my VSG Surgery. I have lost 44.1 pounds as of today, 19.8 of that Post-Op. I lost 3.9 pounds this past week. FitBit tells me I have lost 38% of my excess weight! I have more NSVs to add to my growing list:
-Went away for the weekend with my husband. I was perfectly content eating a small amount while my husband ate big meals.
-While away, I was also happy I could walk around and enjoy the sights, which I could not do six weeks ago because my excess weight caused so much pain in my feet and legs when walking!
I am so very thankful I had this Surgery.

Congratulations! Those NSVs will increase as you continue on. My husband and I have Fitbits too. It's quite the little motivator for an inanimate object.
