Today I am 3 months post op. Time sure does fly!! Sometimes I feel like I am losing so slow, but then I look back over only 3 months, its going by so fast and the pounds are just melting off. I cannot wait to get to my half way point! I will have to think of something very special to do for myself when I get there.

I lost another 4 pounds this week... I seem to average that amount a week still. Sometimes I get upset that its not more, but then I tell myself at least its not 0. "Fingers crossed" I have never had a stall yet. Hopefully I am one of the few lucky ones that never does! I lost 2 pounds one week, that was my lowest week, but I was very constipated. If anyone is curious, here is my weight loss in pounds per week since surgery.

Starting weight: 369

Surgery weight: 356

Today's weight: 282 :):)

Week 1: 17

Week 2: 6

Week 3: 7

Week 4: 4

Week 5: 7

Week 6: 6

Week 7: 2

Week 8: 5

Week 9: 4

Week 10: 5

Week 11: 3

Week 12: 4

Week 13: 4

Just thought it was kind of cool looking at it that way.

I have been doing pretty well. Feeling great. I have been walking some, but need to workout more. My hair started falling out last week and its getting so thin. But thats okay!

Here is a slideshow of my weight loss so far.

Actually the last few weeks I have been able to eat LESS!! But I have been sick (congestion/cough) so maybe that's why?

Wow you look great!!! Love the one where your hair was down. Great pic.

My hair is naturally curly/frizzy, LOL. I straightened it one day. I am not going to do that for a while because its getting so thin, so I don't want to do anything to it right now! But I do like it straight!

Hehe, I got it at Old Navy.com on clearance, and when I ordered it, it was soooo small. I ordered a 3X but it was small. I wore it today because I have a older pic of me wearing it, but then I couldn't find the pic to compare, LOL. It says "NICE" under the naughty, but you can't see it in the pic, hehe.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
