Change in goal weight.
on May 24, 2012 4:11 pm
I no longer feel that my Drs goal weight for me is something I can not do, so Im adjusting my ticker to reflect my Dr goal weight of 155, I feel I CAN do this.

F/U with surgeon.
on May 13, 2012 7:58 pm
Had F/U for my 9th month(really only 8 1/2) but any way..... It went well Ive kind of felt stuck in a rut its harder to loose after 6 months but Im still loosing, Dr Choban was very pleased with my progress, I am too. my blood work was all perfect no problems to report except that I still cant eat bread and found out I cant eat rice either, but I dont miss them. sodas I stay away from, dont know if I could drink them or not, just dont have a taste for them. I still drink one protein shot a day and it did stop the hair loss. my hair had been thinning since surgery and showed no signs of stopping but it seems to be getting better, fluids I still have to work at, I didnt drink much before surgery I have to remind my self to drink, I still have tight restriction I can still only eat 1/2c to 3/4c at a time Dr said if I wasnt hungry dont eat so I get in 2 meals a day and most days 2 snacks,  Im down about 119lbs 30 lbs before surgery and 89lbs since, in just under 9 months so I really cant complain about that, hope everyone is doing well thanks for all your support.
