Topic: 7 months post-op

Here is my 7 month post-op wrap-up.

Pre-surgery weight: 267lbs

Today's weight: 178lbs

Total lost: 89lbs

Goal weight: 160lbs

 

18 lbs to go!!!!

 

-Working out at home 2-3 times a week with the program the physiotherapist made for me and it is going very well

-Slow and steady weight loss

-Still using PatchMD vitamins instead of regular pill format vitamin for my Multi and Vitamin D/Calcium.

-Water consumption has gone down to about 30oz a day....need to work hard on this!!!

-Still freezing, but not as much!!! Got an electric blanket and I heat up my sheets before I go to bed....love it!!! My body is adjusting I guess.

-Cleaned my closet again....

-My wide calf boots are way too big now and regular sized boot don't quite fit yet (some do and some don't)...

-My portion size has stayed consistent

Still no regrets! So grateful for this surgery, truly is life-changing

That's awesome! I am having my scope done on Monday.  I am terrified that he will tell me I have a hiatial hernia which means he wont preform the surgery.    I should be right behind you sometime in Jan/Feb for the surgery :)

Was your all day session at the GDH?

That was really quick.  I have not been given any information about pre op tests yet.  Not sure if I will get that info at the all day session.  It seems like each doctor has a different way of doing things and the wait times are so different.
