3 Month Follow-Up!

May 18, 2010

Yesterday I went to Hamilton for my 3 month follow-up at St. Joe's and everything looks great.  They are pleased with my weight loss, my inches lost and all my labs looked good.  They said they do not have any concerns regarding my numbers and that I should just keep doing what I am doing.  I was very pleased to hear that cause some days I wonder whether I am doing this whole thing right or not.  You know when you sit back and wonder, am I eating right, have I lost enough weight so far.  Then you start to compare yourself to others and you think man maybe I am way off and not doing anything right.  Well I guess I am.  I try to make sure that I take my vitamins everyday, drink a protein shake every morning and eat sensible.  Some days seem harder than others but I guess I am still learning and readjusting to things.  I was afraid of my protein levels cause I have been losing a lot of hair, but they said the levels showed fine, so the hair loss is probably just from the shock of surgery and change in diet and I will be back on track in a couple of months (hopefully).  I mean I expected hair loss, but I seem to be losing it at a high rate, and I started losing it almost immediately after surgery.  Most people report it after 3 months, so it worried me a little.  But they said things looked good.  So I have my next appointment August 17th for my 6 month follow-up.  Lets hope I can continue on this path and meet my goal before one year is up.
