3 Month Post-op
Feb 19, 2010
I visited my surgeon yesterday for my 3 month post-op visit. I have officially lost 54 pounds, which includes my pre-op liquid diet and more if I consider my highest weight. I told my surgeon's associate I have to tell myself every day not to compare myself w/others. My loss is not as much as some, but I am pleased. He told me I am very wise to do that because many patients come in complaining because they are not losing as much as so-and-so. He reminded me we all start at different weights, metabolisms, and genders. All of those and more contribute to our progression.
I feel tremendous. I cannot believe the difference 3.5 months can make in one's life following this surgery. I am so grateful for this opportunity to reclaim my life. I pray if anyone is out there who is still struggling with making the decision whether or not to have this surgery, I recommend they continue reading all our profiles and blogs and see this is truly life altering. ...thanks to all for your continuing support.
