243!

Jan 27, 2012

Still losing!  I had my 3 month follow-up with my surgeon on 01/25.  He says I'm doing great and to keep it up.  My vitamin D level was 28 but should be a minimum of 30 but he says he's not too concerned about that right now.  (I tend to stay away from sunshine... May have to get out in the sun a bit more to have better levels.  I already take 1000 IU per day of vitamin D3.)  I'm down 5 pants sizes, from 32 to 22 now.  I've lost 47 lbs since my date of surgery.  That's not too bad!  I'm down 70 lbs since I started seeing the surgeon and over 107 lbs down from my very highest.  It was somewhere over 350 but not sure if it was 351 or 370 so I will assume it was 351.  I need new bras.  They are bunchy and gettting loose around me.  I hate bra shopping.... I'll have to do it, though.  Maybe I'll take some time this weekend to go.  I've been able to pick up several pairs of jeans at the thrift stores since they are temporary sizes.  You don't find a lot of 32s at the thrift store, but you can find 22s and 24s!  I don't know why, but that tickles me.  I can buy clothes at thrift stores again!!!  Simple things make me happy.  Dopey things, too. 

Hubby is losing quite well.  He's 70+ pounds down from his highest and 38 or so down from date of surgery.  Men lose so much faster!  That's ok.  He's still struggling with eating too fast.  He's learning, though.  We've been walking a lot and I want to start doing some muscle building.  I'm jiggly and not muscular at all.  I can see them though.  They are in there!  On my legs and arms... what do you know??? 

TTFN!
