3 month post op check up.

Yesterday I had my 3 month (11 week actually) check up with my nutritionist, surgical PA and exercise physiologist. Everything went very well and they were all pleased with the progress I've made both on the scale and with the changes I've made to my diet and workout routines. A couple of things of note that I want to share:

 

Weight on 11-23-2010 (initial consult): 492

Weight on 1-10-11 (Surgery day): 456

Weight on 3-28-2011 (3 Month check up): 383

 

Cholesterol on 10-13-2010 (Labs done with PCP before contacting surgeon): 221

Cholesterol on 3-28-2011: 170

 

Days of exercise per week pre surgery: Yeah right!

Days of exercise per week since surgery: 6 (3 days of cardio, 3 days of strength training)

 

Normal breakfast pre surgery: 6 scrambled eggs with cheese and 6 sausage links.

Normal breakfast post surgery: 1/2 cup egg beaters with 1 oz cheese

 

I thank God every night for the change he has brought into my life and the daily opportunities he gives me to be successful.

That is soo great. I am 10 days post op and have been really doing good...but this morning i wanted my normal breakfast soooo bad i cried. My normal breakfast was a 3 pound burrito from the mexican restraunt down the street consisting of beans, eggs, cheese and chip rolled in a huge tortilla. So reading this really made me think..i dont have to eat that way anymore!! Thank you.
