This is a gi-normous NSV. I haven't used my inhaler in five whole days! As many of you know, I have terrible acute and chronic asthma. Five days before my band installation, I had to be taken to the ER via ambulance. My asthma was one of the main reasons I got the band, that whole prospect of death by resperatory failure just didn't apeal to me. (..."I want a death by misadventure, wanna be in a bus that crashes into a train, just like Ozzy Ozborn! I wanna death by misadventure. Got no deathwish, suicde is bogus, this practical dude has some years to go!" (http://www.bobrivers.com/audiovault/tunes/tunes.asp?Var=D It is 7th one down "Boys! turn that "Guns and Butter" down! )

My book bag doesn't seem as heavy as it was before I was banded. (and I do almost all my walking with that bookbag)

It doesn't hurt to stand at the sink when I do the dishes anymore. I believe it is because I can get closer to the sink because my tummy is smaller. I've lost an inch from my waist!

Speaking of inches lost, I've lost a total of 23 from my entire body.

CORRECTION! I didn't loose 43 inches, I lost 23 inches. I fat-finged, type-oh, wishful thinking, PEBKAC, I/O error... and the list goes on.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
