The Triple-Beast Christmas Update..........

What's up guys?  Been a while(again)... but sooner or later I always pop in!  Merry Christmas to you all.  Let's see... surgery(RNY) was on June28, 2007. My goal was to lose 100 pounds, and it's a few days shy of 6 months. The stats are:  Surgery day... 285 lbs.    Today.... 195 lbs.  10 pounds to goal but I'm already as thin as a runway model now because I'm 5'11" . No loose skin problems or stretch marks whatsoever.  I will have to admit that I've not followed all the rules all the time.. but it's working great even with my shortcomings. I haven't tested the waters where sweets are concerned.... and I don't want to. Mayonnaise made me puke 2 times now. The second it hits my pouch it comes right back up. I used to love it...but now it scares me. Oily and high-fat foods seem to bother me the most.... but not all of them because I can eat cheese and nuts just fine. I try to work-out some, but I'm not really regular. I am in pretty good shape from years of over-exercising as it used to be an obsession in the first half of my life. One scary thing is that I like to have a drink or two alot more than I did pre-op. Gonna have to keep tabs on that. My sister is coming for a visit tomorrow from out of state. She was my inspiration for the surgery...having lost 160 lbs. , and has kept it off for 2 years now. Take care guys!!!!!!!!!!!    The Beast!!
