Above average

i had my 6 month checkup (I'm actually just about 7 months but my appointment a month ago got rescheduled) yesterday and my surgeon said my weight loss is above average. For some reason that cracked me up. The nurse then asked if I would be on their website. I declined (not too many people know about my surgery) but it was a nice compliment!

I can't believe it has been 6 months. It was this time last year I made my first appointment to try to get the surgery. I feel really lucky to be in this spot right now. To have access to this kind of medical care is truly a gift. And I attribute much of my success to the advice I have read about and received right here on OH. Thanks to you all, and let's keep marching on!

Yes it's still an adjustment even though I'm pretty used to it by now. But I was well prepared because of all the reading and support groups I attended prior to surgery.
