Reached my goal! WITH PICS!
Okay, so today I went to an appointment to see my new dietician and my new Bariatric surgeon. I was transferred because I wanted to be closer to my doctors. Plus, honestly, I didn't like the plan where I was at, especially since all the other locations had plans that were very similar and this varied tremendously. <br />
<br />
Anyways, so I transferred and spoke with them about how I haven't lost squat since December. We reviewed my food log and my exercise plan and I'm right on target. <br />
<br />
We then talkd excess skin. According to my doc, I have about ten lbs of excess skin, which puts me at about 130 lbs. which is where I wanna be. So she said, you're at goal. Just keep exercising and eating the way you have been and you should be able to maintain, no problem.<br />
<br />
I'm super excited to hear that! I had been worried that I hadn't lost anything and thought maybe I'm doing something wrong. But turns out, this is where my body wants to be. Which is great, cause i think I'm small enough. <br />
<br />
I mean, from 300+ to 140 is awesome! Anyways, here's a pic...<br />
