Second F/U visit with surgeon

[jane13 2,256]

Although he never set a particular "goal" for me I felt like my first f/u visit on June 2nd that he was disappointed in my weight loss. I was hoping to be in ONEderland today but that didn't happen

I am dreading the scale today - I use to step backwards up onto them before WLS! I am confident enough to step up facing forward, just like I did in June, but I sure hope I don't feel like I didn't lose enough :/

Its bad enough to have personal drama outside the WLS world and to also be worrying about a darn number on a scale!

OK - I have said my piece.

Wish me luck!

Are you doing the Halloween Challenge?

My surgery weight was 238 so I've lost 35 since surgery. It goes in fits and starts. This week has been very good with 1.6 pounds down today and about a half pound for several days in a row before that. I start to expect that kind of loss but I know that isn't practical. I exercise quite a bit and have increased my calories to 800-1000 per day. I haven't looked into the Halloween challenge. Are you doing it?
