9 Months out and down 90 lbs.
Aug 13, 2009
Wow, I have been meaning to update and post on here, but just took the time today - I didn't realize how long it has been.Today is my 9 month surgiversary and I am down 90 lbs. I now weigh 154 and I wear size 14 pants and L/XL tops. My rings all have to be re-sized because I lost at least a size on those - my ring finger is now a size 6. Also, my shoe size went down from a 7-1/2 to a 6-1/2 or 7, depending on the shoe...... how weird, huh? I had heard that it was possible for that to happen, but my feet were not fat, so I did not expect it to happen to me.
I saw Dr. Richi last night and he was very pleased with my progress. I have only vomited 3 times, and the last time was in March. Food goes down easily for me - even the bad stuff like bread, pasta,.pretzels and potato chips. I am still avoiding carbonated beverages and sweets, although I have had bites here & there of cake, brownies & ice cream. I just make sure to watch it and be careful.
Also, I do go to the gym, although this summer I have slacked. Once the kids are back in school I can get back to my regular routine.
That's about all for now......... hope to update again in a month or so.
