Five year bandiversary!!!

Jan 24, 2015

I cannot believe it has been five years since my surgery. I am proud of my current weight. Last month I had a fall and I developed a blood clot in my leg. Later, after I was put on blood thinners, I developed a hematoma and I had to be hospitalized and receive a blood transfusion. Consequently, I am in a lot of pain in my right leg and I am supposed to elevate it the majority of the time. Therefore, I am basically inactive. I start physical therapy on 2/5/15. I am not to return to work until 2/19/15 or later.

This month I have missed the bariatric lifestyle classes that are available through my clinic. Monday, I have an annual appt. with the PA and the health psychologist at the clinic. I will see the nutritionist next month. Over the holidays, I purchased a crockpot and I look forward to experimenting with it in the new year. If I had a choice, I would have the band surgery in a heart beat. It has allowed me to maintain a 100 pound weight loss.
