8 weeks Post-Op

Feb 10, 2010

February 11, 2010.  Weight today:  278.0  47 pounds lost!    Next mini goal: fifty pounds.

Had my check up with Dr Hill yesterday, and he is very pleased and said he was proud of me.  I am ahead of the curve on weight loss according to him, at least so far, and his advice was pretty much to just keep doing what I am doing, steadily ramp up the exercise (which I have been doing) and let the DS do it's thing.  I don't have to go back for follow up now until June 21, so that's after school is out and will also be my 6 month evaluation.  Murphy, my PA/PCP extraordinaire went with me yesterday so she could meet Dr Hill and ask questions, etc, and she was impressed. 

All in all I am feeling  great.  The increased fat has definitely helped keep the systems moving and so I will try to keep the protein drinks made with at least half and half. 

I was told by three people yesterday that "Wow! I am really starting to see a difference." Murphy's husband was especially fun as he had not seen me since before surgery.
