POST OP WEIGHT LOSS UPDATE

Hello to all my freinds and supporters! I have gotten so many inspriring messages that its been impossible to reply to them all, so i wanted to post on the message board. As a few of you may or may not know, I had a scale at home that was telling me that i dropped 4-10 lbs in the past 3 weeks, which of course depressed me because i had made a major decision to have this surgery to LOSE weight and i seemed to be failing.. welll... today i finally had my 3 week check up and the doc confirmed with my weigh in that i actually have dropped 28 lbs in the past 3 weeks!!! istarted at 314 lbs and now weigh 286!! wow.. i am relieved.. and renewed in my faith in this procedure. feel free to reply. All comments welcome. take care everyone. :-)

Far out Rose!!!  Good for you!!

                          

Thanks! I couldnt have done it without everyones support! I am seeing the difference every day! I will post more weight updates on my page, once i get a working scale! lol.

Hi Rose, Happy to hear of your first triumph and looking forward to hearing about your wow moments as they come.  Think you'd better throw away that scale that was making you depressed . Be well and keep posting.

Oh yeah, that scale is soo gone! lol. I might just make a trip to the gym and use the scale with the sliding weights on it. Anything is better than nothing. Thanks for your response! Take care. :-)

HI! ROSAN    SO GLAD YOU ARE FEELING BETTER, AND HAVE ALSO GOTTEN SOME GOOD NEWS.    I HOPE YOU WILL CONTINUE TO DO WELL,  AND FEEL GOOD. BRIDGET   K.

Hi Bridget! Thank you, yes I am feeling so much better. Just knowing that I am not a failure at this process has been so great. I still struggle with what and when to eat, but I am taking it one day at a time. I started a job already, and i seem to be fine working 8 hr days, so everything seems to be coming together. Thank you especially for your support these past few weeks, I really appreciate it. ! Feel free to send me private mesgs if you need to talk, and i know i can do the same to you. Thanks again. :-)

That's fabulous news!  Congratulations! Barb

Thank you! Its great! I loved seeing the scale stop in the 200's! I havent been 286 in years! and it only gets better from here!
