A Week Shy Of 5 Months Post-Op....

Man time flies by so fast. I am very happy with where I am at with my weightloss so far. I was down a total of 60lbs at my 4 month post-op appt. My doc is VERY happy with me. The loss has slowed down quite a bit.

 

I need to get back to basics and make sure I get protein in first. I also need to keep doing 5-6 tiny meals a day rather than 2-3 not as tiny. I know it makes a difference. I've been out of my Premier protein shakes and I need to get some more. They help me tremendously.

 

I've overdone it by eating a bit too much sometimes and I definitely pay for it - with the feeling of over fullness, belching and throwing up. It is not intentional, but it does happen once in a while.

 

I'm working out 5-7 days a week and rather intensely - spinning classes, circuit training, yoga, hiking, etc... I actually like to work out.

 

Great so far! I hope to get off another 20lbs in the next month..or month and a half...then the next 20....

 

I got a copy of the 'before' photo taken in my docs office....YIKES! I am so glad I got sleeved!!!! I will post before and current photos soon.

 

One Love.

You sound like you are doing great! Keep it up. We all make poor choices every now and then, but we need to keep the big picture in mind. I'm down 70 pounds in 4 months.

Fantastic job! You sound like you are on the right track. I too am 4 months post-op and am down 54 lbs. I don't have my post-op appoint with my surgeon till 6/28. I hope to be at 60 lbs loss by then.

You are a great inspiration, congratulations on your success. I'm 17 days post-op and there has not been a day that has been easy yet. I keep telling myself it will be worth it in the end, so I look for stories like yours to keep me focused on the end game! Thanks and way to go!
