2 Months Post Op :D

Hi everyone, I am 2 months out of surgery and doing great ! Been having trouble remembering vitamins protein etc. Ive been able to eat a little more food, getting used to new foods now since i dislike some foods i used to love. Getting ready to join a gym, since my skin has started to sag alot . I am down to 305 . When i went to my first consult with dr heap i weighed 359. Before surgery i weighed 348. Been stalling alot dont know if its because of my protein intake , since i keep forgeting. I get kind of scared thinking since i weighed 360 i might not lose alot of weight. since the weight loss slowed down. Hope you are all doing great in your journey. Ill try and update every month from now on. Thanks for being here :D
