Down 45 lbs, check up and everything A-Ok!

Hi all... Just wanted to share a quick update on my progress... Sleeved February 1 by Dr. Aceves, 210 day of surgery, 165 today (June 1). Went in for my 3 month post surgery checkup with Dr. A last Friday, they did the upper GI swallow, checked for Reflux, etc, all looks great. No hernias, no stretching, everything 100%! Got my labs back today, and everything came through with bells on! My hemoglobin and Iron are even UP since my surgery, which some of you may know I've had problems with. All-in-all, I'm just sooooooo happy with my results and how I look and feel right now. YAHOO to the sleeve!

Hope you're all doing GREAT! xxoo

Thanks, Tiff! Very happy with my progress... but you know, still impatient. :biggrin0:

Congratulations! It's always so gratifying to get those labs back and hear that "everything looks great," isn't it?

As a fatty, I was always waiting to hear that I had diabetes or needed blood pressure meds, or something. Now all the labs just get better and better!

So again, congratulations!

Don't know how I missed this post before. Congratulations. You are doing AWESOME! Keep in touch.

Wooohooo! Great job! I've seen that a lot of people end up going back to Dr. A for their check up, but no one ever describes their expierence with this like they do with surgery. Did you make all of your own plans while down there and then just show up at the hospital for a schedualed appt. Or do they help in planning your trip/accomidations like they do when you head down the first time? Could you talk a little about your expierence with this situation? Just curious. :-) I'm hoping to schedual surgery with Dr. A some time in September so I'm just gathering all the info I can now. Thanks in advance!
