3 months!!!!
Its been 3 months since surgery!!! wow that went by fast!!! Am I sorry I had this surgery???? NO WAY!!!!, its been a ride but its a rewarding one. Ive lost ...a total of 72.8 lbs.....44.8 since the day of surgery!!!!! I'm so happy with my progress. I'm drinking all my fluids and eating most of my protein every day, exercise 4 to 5 days a week (Curves), walk daily and feel healthy.
I still don't eat breads, but I do sometimes eat a whole wheat cracker or two. bread seems to hurt my tummy. I'm amazed at the volume of food I use to eat, as opposed to what it takes to satisfy me now. I do at times get hungry but not the gnawing hunger I had before surgery, and I'm thrilled that a small piece of jerky or a piece of cheese will make it go away, and that I'm OK with that. my jeans are now 18 to 20, I use to wear size 24, tops are a large down from a 3x!!! Ive lost a good bit of my weight from the top half, my butt and thighs are more stubborn. but its going too. I really have NO complaints at this point.
follow up with my surgeon on the 29th, I hope shes as pleased as I am. I would like to loose 25 more lbs before Christmas, don't know if I can, but we'll see. Hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving. I'm hosting dinner for about 22 family members, we always have a wonderful time. But the only thing Ill be stuffing is the turkey and not myself!!!!, first time for everything.....lol
