40 pounds!
Hi all,
I haven't been posting much lately... crazy busy. But, I went to my PCP today for my first postop checkup. I've officially lost exactly 40 pounds. I wanted to dance!
My vitals were really good, too. For the last several years, my resting heart rate has been 90 or above. My doctors and I have sort of assumed that it had to do with my asthma medication. But, today... my resting heart rate was 72!
And my blood pressure was 108/70. A little low, but I'll keep an eye on that.
I haven't had anything stuck in my pouch. I haven't vomited. I'm still happily sleeping on my tummy as I have been since a week after surgery.
My clothes are almost all too big, but what a nice problem to have. I haven't weighed what I currently weigh in about 8 years. Still way too high, but that's QUICKLY changing.
Just wanted to update everyone. I hope you're all well!

P.S. MWG, I haven't forgotten about that article. I just haven't had a chance to go journal diving lately. :)
