Hi Everyone!! It's been awhile.. but here's an update!!
Hi Everyone!
I hope everyone is doing good..I just wanted to do a little post to update everyone on my journey thus far..lol.. I am just under 4.5 month out and I'm down 72 lbs and 88 inches. I have moved from a size 28/30 pants and 3-4X tops to a 22 pants (and they are getting way to big now) and 2x shirts(again, they are getting big too). I have lost ALOT of weight from my upper body..basically from my belly button up..and yes.. my boobs are slowly leaving me..lol..Before surgery my bra size was a 44DD and now Im a 40C..I dont mind to much because all they do is get in the way..lol.. but the hubby-to-be is not so happy...lol..I have had more NSV that I think I could ever list.. this surgery has been the best thing I could have ever done for myself..As for diet, viamins, water.. everything is going very well..I get my vitamins in.. most days I get well over the 2L of water and I have tolerated most foods well (salad seems to be my demon..lol.. I want to eat it soo bad but it makes me soo sick..lol..but as my dietian said..try try again..lol)...
Sorry I don't post much, but I check in and read the posts a couple time a day..But on a real note..Thank you to everyone that got me through the long long long looooonnnnggg pre-surgery journey and being there to answer any questions I had post op...And for all the newbies..this surgery will be the best thing you will ever do..I feel like a totally new person and Im only 4.5 month out..Sure its scary..and its a big big thing to take on but thats why were are all here as part of the OH family to show support and help!!
