SV and NSV'S
Thanksgiving marks 3 weeks post op. I am currently on Pureed foods and loving it! This journey is amazing even in such a short time. I wanted to share my SV and NSV's so far with you guys.
SV: I'm Down 60lbs from my HW, and 20lbs down since surgery. I couldn't ask for better results.
NSV'S
1. Got letter from Primary Doctor confirming I am no longer hypertensive, and no longer diabetic. Yay no more meds.
2. Can walk and stand for much longer without giving out of breath or hurting so terribly bad.
3. Have to wear multiple layers and suspenders to keep clothes and shoes on me. Some of my pants look like fishing waders on me now. lol
4. My belly no longer rubs the steering wheel in the truck.
5. I feel better about myself.
6. Yesterday my church had a Thanksgiving dinner, it was awesome to see all that food and not care, nor have a burning desire to eat. A little Pureed Turkey and Deviled Eggs were totally awesome to me.
HW: 478+ Consult: 478 Pre Op: 453 SW: 438 CW: 293 (7-20-15) GW: 225 LBS Gone: 185

Congrats on all the hard work.
