1st post-op visit and the results are in!!!

Feb 25, 2010

I finally had my 1st post-op visit with Dr. Liao yesterday and the results are in...according to his records I have lost a total of 17 lbs since my 11/11/09 visit which was just prior to WLS!!!
I had hoped to lose 20 lbs but I'm not complaining!!!  Truthfully as far as I am concerned I did.
The real breakdown goes like this...I've lost 17 lbs since my 11/11/09 visit, but 21.5 lbs since my 1/6/10 Endo visit (guess you know what I did over the holidays ), and 18 lbs since MyBigDay 1/15/10.

No matter what, my ultimate goal is to weigh 127 lbs and with that being said.....I have 112lbs to go!!!  Which is way better than 130 lbs!!!

I am very proud of myself I worked hard and it showed!!! I knew that in the long run it would all pay off!!! Even though there were times when I was soooo hungry and you could hear my stomach growl from here to Canada I stayed focused and God gave me the strength I needed and I am thankful for that!!!

Dr. Liao was impressed as well since I had not even received my 1st fill yet.
Actually I got my 1st fill yesterday as well.
I'm praying   that this will help me to lose even more weight now!!!

I have heard that sometimes with Lap Band Surgery weight loss is not as rapid as it is with other types of WLS....truthfully I didn't put it on over night    and I surely won't be taking it off over night either!!!

My main concern is to continue losing the weight and keeping it off for ever!!!
