I had my 3 month checkup today. All my vitamin levels are good,. Liver enzymes a little elevated. Thyroid function normal and I get to STOP my BP meds! My BP was 118/72! Doc says I am right on track for where I should be at 3 months. I was worried I was not losing fast enough. She says they prefers low and steady......1-2 lbs a week. WHEW!

hmmm none of those issues here. now that the constipation stage is over I have been good. maybe what you are eating? -
My doc suggested today to check out Slimpressions.com they sell compression garments that can keep the loose skin in check and help with the chafing, etc as well. I have been having issues under the 'belly flap; that has developed already. she says it helps to wear an undergarment that keeps the loose skin contained so there is no contact underneath.
