I'm trying to give these people all my labs and it's so hard! I had to do number 2 in a bag and send it in for the lab to test it. CHILE! Why did I poop in the container and when I went to drop it off, that part of the hospital was closed?! Sigh. AWKWARD. I'll drop it off today after work tho. Feeling great!· 0 replies

Good news and Meh news...· 0 replies
Meh: so I think I experienced/am experiencing my first stall-ish since surgery and now I get how frustrating it can be! So annoying to wake up every morning to watch the scale report a gain or loss of the same 1.5 pounds for over 2 weeks. *sigh*. Some say put the scale away, but I log my weight every morning to get a daily moving average of my weight. So long as this moving average is not heading upwards (which it isn’t and hasn’t since post-op) then I am good with my curent “minimalist” weekly weight loss rate, however small I think it is 🙄.
However.
The Good news:
To allow for some self back patting, and to remind myself of the bigger picture, I set a bunch of interim goals/milestones... a few of which are 10lbs increment weight loss goals:
So this morning, after hovering within 1.5 pounds of an interim goal for over 2 weeks, I weighed in at 164.8, and officially lost 70 lbs! In 4 months. That is 30% of my starting body weight. Or the equivalent of my 10 year old neice. How crazy is that.
Next Goal: weigh in at 162lbs to be merely overweight (and not obese!)

I am in the Pre-Op stage. I have 4 more nutrition classes to go to. I've had my endoscopy with favorable results although I was told I had an abnormal z-line. Everything looks good so far. Had my team appointment with the psychologist and have my pulmonologist this week. I chose the sleeve· 0 replies
