So today i weighed in at 188, the same as the day i entered boot camp in 1984. Guess that leaves my next goal to be getting to the same 170 i weighed when i left boot camp. That truly was the best shape i have ever been in. Funny but even then my bmi would have been listed as overweight. I have always carried the bulk of my weight around the middle. 55" around the waist was the largest i ever measured and that was 1 month post op before i could bring myself to look at the number. Today that is 40" I am truly saddened when i see the posts of people struggling so much post op with pain or illness because i so want everyone to have the same amazing experience i have enjoyed. We all experience this journey differently and i truly hope you all reach a goal that brings you a level of comfort and happiness that you deserve.

Soo Far.....Soooooo Good......

Some of my surgery incisions are infected (I was told I was at increased risk for infection since I'm diabetic). I got to the doctor in the early stages so its nothing major, but I'm waiting on the cultures to find out which antibiotic is most appropriate to treat the infection. I should hear from the doc's office tomorrow. In the meantime, I have no desire to eat (surgery was two weeks ago) and find myself preferring to drink my protein. Is that normal?
