5 months post RNY

Apr 11, 2011

 I cant believe its already been 5 months (4/8/11).  What a ride.  I seems like yesterday I was trying to get approved for surgery.  I'm not sure how much Ive lost in total but I know its around 100lbs including what I managed to take off before surgery.  My 6th month check up with my surgeon is coming up and I'm not going to weigh myself until then.  Id like my loss to be surprise.  In the mean time, I feel amazing.  I have more energy now and have more fun doing things.  I'm not worried about how my cloths fit or whether people will notice how fat I am before they get to know me.  I feel so much better about myself.  As far as body issues, I'm still me.  I seem to have traded in some old concerns with some new ones but that's ok.  I don't mind being naked for the first time in my life (the hubby loves this) even with some loose skin (its not tooooo bad).  My hair is still thinning a bit but its slowed down a lot.  I got a new haircut and now you cant tell my hair has thinned at all.  Ill be posting pictures soon, I just haven't gotten around to taking them.  I look forward to comparing them to my before photos.  Life is good.
