4 months out!!
Hey everyone!! Good to read your posts and to be able to celebrate weight loss with you all.
I am four months out now and have lost 88 lbs. Still have 92 pounds to go but I get there. I have not had any major complications. Need to remind myself to eat slowly from time to time, but my ouch will do the reminding for me if I eat to fast..lol. I need to exercise and have been reading lots of posts about going to the gym. I, too, can hold my head up higher at the gym....so I need to sign up and exercise. I am LOVING the compliments from friends and family. My energy level has increased so much I actually smile at work and I work 12 hour days!! I feel so much better. My only problems (and they are not really problems) is the hair loss and the body stress from surgery/protein has worsened my psoriasis. My surgeon said he has bseen this before and it should statr improving about the 5th to 6th month. I sure hope so or I will have to resort to more $$ at the dermatologists.
Thanks to everyone posting on a regular basis! Always good to read about your life and the changes within.
