5 months out, update!
I havent been on here in forever!!! I started out at around 275, 255 the day of surgery, now down to 198 (havent weighed in a few weeks though).
This is the hardest thing ever to do, the first 2 months, now it is the easiest thing. I am not a strict dieter really, just get my proteins in and try to make healthy choices. I know it is up to me to lose the next 25 lbs I want to, which is a weight I would no longer be considered over weight, yay! So, I have 25 more lbs to lose. The things that stinks is I can eat more now. The first 3 months after surgery 4 bites and I was full. Now it is more like 7 bites, sometimes 10, depending on what I am eating.
I had the normal lab work, all perfect he said, just perfect. HOWEVER, my hair fell out like CRAZY!!! So, I cut my hair that was nearly to my butt to my shoulders and bought Niaxion, BEST THING EVER!!! Barely any hair falls now, soooo relieved. I went 4 weeks with handfuls coming out a few times a day, good thing I started out with very thick hair.
My sleep apnea is GONE!!! I can feel great with just 6 hours of sleep now, AMEN!
I cheat and do horrible 3 days a week (PMS) but I am okay with it, makes me stronger the rest of the month. This experience has been so good. I need to make myself exercise, I KNOW this has to start soon. I started out wearing size 22 pants now in a 14, SO HAPPY, feels FREAKING good!!!
