4 Month Check-In

Hello Everyone,

Today is my 4 month anniversary from my RNY surgery on October 12, 2009.

I have lost 92 lbs since the surgery and 115 lbs total from the pre-op diet (Nutrisystem Men's Diabetic).

I have so much more energy.

Gone are the days of rocking myself to get up out of a couch.

I can now RUN after the kids, especially when they're being fresh ;)

I can run up flights of steps without getting out of breath.

I get having to buy new clothes... I went from a size 56 to a size 44 as of now. 3X pants from Casual Male were getting tight on me before this.  I had several 4X shirts before and now I am into 2X shirts.  My 2X winter coat is getting rather roomy as well.  I have donated my old clothes through freecycle.org.

I drink a little over 100oz a day (Thanks Krissy on the water tip - your weight divided by 2).

I've had many people tell me how good I look now, but I tell them... "I'm not done yet!" :)

I've met so many nice people through my support groups and here on OH.

I'm even thinking of being a coach on my son's football team next season.

I'm sure there is more... I'll think about it and maybe start my blog (for the first time).
