Today I had my 3 month appointment with my surgeon. I am on freaking cloud 9. I got my blood work done. Before surgery I was mildly anemic, with stupid low vitamin d (Below 10 when it should be 30) and pre-diabetic. Blood work today was no anemia, a vitamin d of 29 and no pre-diabetes! Vitamin D still needs a little work but it is infinitely better than it once was (I was taking 100,000 UI of D3 a week).
A little curious though, my surgeon told me these next 3 months will be more difficult and will set the pace for the remainder of my journey the 1st year. Did anyone else have more difficulty after the 3rd month? How much were you working out? I work out about 3x a week now and surgeon wants me up to 5x a week.
