6 months + 1 week post op

Dec 28, 2010

well....here i am!  went for my 6 month check up monday and got an awesome report from the surgeon.  he's very pleased with my progress.....i must admit i am super excited!

it didn't happen for Christmas but the day after Christmas i got on the scales and it said 159.4!!!!  OH MY GOSH!!!  i was so excited that i took a picture of it to show my hubby!  i can't remember when i've been this small!  i would guess late 1970's as my son was born in 1980 and i know it hasn't happened since then.  i'm 4.4 pounds from my first goal.  this is the first time i've been within my weight range (on those stinking charts that we hate so much!)  i'm still having a hard time comprehending it!  i never would have thought i'd be in the 150's by 1/1/11!  what a blessing!  i still have a ways to go.  i'm thinking of having a #2 goal of 150 but we'll see.  i'm too excited to think about that right now!

the hair continues to come out......the hair loss started 2 months ago!  don't have much hair left!!!  i do see some new growth but i'm still seeing scalp!  oh my goodness.......looks pretty bad to me.  my hubby says that i'm the one that notices and it's really not that noticable.....what a sweetie to lie like that to make me feel better!

i continue to be on my guard.....don't want to mess this up!

til next time.......
