It's been a while...

Sep 03, 2015

Goodness! What an amazing, busy and life changing journey this last year has been! I've lost over 108lbs since my sleeve in 12/2013. I still maintain my portion sizes, focus on protein intake and exercise 3-4 days a week for 30 minutes to one hour at least. I have made it down to 161lb, size 8 in pants and even a size 6 in some dresses. I hope to reach my goal weight within the next couple of months. There was a period of over 6 months when I hovered at about 174lb. I had to go see my primary care doctor and have labs drawn to see what was going on. Thyroid was a little high, but not enough to put me back on medication. Before my surgery I was pre-diabetic, my lipid profile was awful and I was on Metformin and thyroid medication. I have not had to take those in almost a year now. I had to start exercising a lot more and really reining in my carbs in order to get momentum again. As a side note: Water, water, water!!! That has also been a big factor in maintaining fullness and flushing fat out. Blessings everyone!
