Seven weeks out
Jan 25, 2013
So this week I am seven weeks out. I went for my six week follow up and was pleasantly surprised. I lost 16 pounds since my last visit two weeks ago, for a total of 33 pounds since surgery! Last year before surgery, it took me almost all year to lose 22 pounds! I have very little nausea now, so most days I feel great. I am still having huge problems with constipation, today I had to use a baby laxative just to finally pass my stool. The daily MOM is not helping. So now I have to add Miralax and prune juice to my ever growing list of meds. I still have not found a support group that I can attend.I am thinking about starting one on my own. I started one here on OH, but havent had much response : (. However, I really need a live group and I know I am not the only WLS person in the area. I am training to walk my first 5k on March 16, which happens to be my birthday. I am planning to be able to run in one by the end of the summer. All in all, things are moving along well.
