I reached 100 lbs today but....
Coming close to my 9 month surgiversary on the 28th and today I weighed in at 155. Which means I am down a total of 100 lbs since I started my weight loss journey. However, this morning I had my 9 month vitamin levels and other labs done and I am so puzzled with some of the results. Mainly the lipid panel...turns out my total cholesterol is high by 1 mg but still high, my LDL is also high 113. Before getting sleeved, I had no issues with my cholesterol. My phosphorus is also high (borderline) and my iron in low which explains why I have been feeling sluggish. I have appt with my surgeon on the 28th and I guess we will discuss all this. I am just a little puzzled!! But I am super happy that I have reached the 100 lb loss and maybe reaching goal before or by Nov.28....
Congratulations on losing 100 pounds. Excellent job working that sleeve. Its wonderful to be so close to goal in 9 months.
Best wishes,
Carol

Re your labs, your doctor will look at the whole thing and sort out one against the other. That's what always happens with my labs, at least. Someone already raised a good point about your test -- did you fast appropriately beforehand?
