9 days post-op. There's no stopping me now

Ok peeps I went to my surgeon's office for my first post-op appointment yesterday. I just had to share with you guys. I HAVE LOST 30 POUNDS SINCE AUGUST 3. That's when my 2 weeks pre-op diet started. They were totally blown away, so was I. Since surgery I have had no hunger and had to practically force myself to eat a hardboiled egg with lite mayo mixed with it yesterday. My first real food since before my pre op diet. Yes, I am a heavyweight and the weight will initially come off quicker, but I AM PUMPED!!!!! I am on a mission. I AM LOVING THIS TOOL!!!! DID YOU HEAR ME? I AM LOVING THIS TOOL. So all totalled I have lost 46 pounds since April when I went to my first informational seminar. WOO HOO!!!!!

Just a quick update I forgot to post the other day. The reason I got the sleeve in the first place was my health was going down. I could barely walk five minutes without my back starting to hurt. I was on high blood pressure meds and diabetes runs very strong in my family. I just didn't want anything to get worst. When I went to my surgeon's office for the post-op, of course they check your blood pressure. Guess what mine was? Mind you I had not taken any meds since before my pre-op diet on August 3rd. It was 117/72 which I believe is good. I can now walk 15 minutes without my back hurting. I'm very happy!!!!

My next appointment is in two months. That's when they will check my labs.

Also I want THANK EVERYONE FOR THE KIND WORDS AND YOU GUYS ARE MY ENCOURAGEMENT TOO.:lol0::thumbup::laugh0::thumbup::thumbup:

That is so awesome, Deb. To see such quick results in your health blows me away. It's just gonna keep getting better gf. :confused1:

All I can say is HOLY CRAP!!!! :w00t: I am a heavyweight too but it took me a month to lose 37! You are doing just awesome!!:w00t:

Thanks for your continued support and I am really excited to see you go through your journey too!

I am so happy and proud of you... Congrats
