215 lbs!!! It seems like the weight loss has slowed a bit. I am not surprised being that I am trying to get under 200 lbs. I am still very happy with my results!

Well today is exactly 3 mths since my surgery. I am down 55 lbs! I feel great. I went from a size 22 to a size 16. The 16 are even getting a little loose. My cousin gave me some size 14 clothes this weekend. I tried it on for the hell of it and I can button the jeans. Although i must admit they are still too tight but hopefully not for long.

Well it has been over 2 months and I feel great. I am down about 40 lbs and i couldnt be happier. I can tell the most in my clothes. My biggest problem is finding foods that I like. I will try something and it looks and smells good but it is just o.k.. I have not had any problems keeping anything down. Everything seems to agree with me, it just seems like now eating ia a chore. It is not a total complaint, I would just like to occasionally eat something I can savor and enjoy.

followups
Jan 15, 2008
1/10/08 I went to my initial consultation and was pleased that Dr. Mcdaniel is such a kind and understanding man. I was told to get off all carbonated drinks and replace sugar with artificial sweetners. DONE. I was also told I needed a gallbladder untrasound, an individual couseling session, a group session, and to see a nutritionist.
1/14/08
This morning I went for a gallbladder ultasound. I have an appointment with a counselor this afternoon. I see the nutritionist Wednesday and I'm going to group counseling Thursday night, then I'll be done and I just have to wait.
