3 months

Jul 18, 2010

Today is my 3 month check up with Dr. Sund. I was just in Iowa for a work trip for a week. Kinda a downer, I gained 2 pounds, too much food and drink all around. I will get it off quick, back to the basics.  my weight is 190 lbs.  Thats 52 pounds since surgery.  Goal is between 165 and 180.  I dont want to be too skinny. I have had some alcohol but just 1-2 drinks, and it burns off quick. Appetite is back, in fact at certain times I get the munchies. Been good about vitamins and supplements but occ. miss taking will work on that. Pants size 34, amd Im wearing a MEDIUM SZ shirt. Very happy with results and looking forward to GOAL of 170. Today I will post some pics. Later.....

Check Please

May 27, 2010

Just got my hospital bill. RNY pluse 4 days admitted for colon obstruction. 38,900 dollars and I only have to pay 971.00$  Do I leave a tip? Only other expenses were my 1000$ for my sleep apnea study and about 500$ for the cpap machine. O i almost forgot, many many 25$ copay office visits.   And I forgot the surgeon bill was 750$.

weight 214    Im getting my appetite back.  ive experimented with a few things i shouldnt eat, but they all went down fine with no problems: 1 piece of wheat toast, a oatmeal cookie, a small slice of cheese bread, some fiber crackers, apple juice. no dumping-yet to get that full/sick feeling at all.  i wonder if they really did surgery or was i a placebo.

Cool Moment

May 07, 2010

I read on other blogs that this would happen, and yesterday it did. A coworker I had not seen in 5 months didnt recognize me. He said he had to look 2-3 times and only knew it might be me cause my hair was the same. LOL this is so much fun.
