BombShelle 31 Posted July 25, 2012 Today was my 1st pre op appointment. Fully dressed with shoes on and a new full head of Indian Remy weave.... I am down 18lbs. The doctor was not impressed as much as I was. He said sure I'm more like -20lbs but he could care less right now with my initial weight reduction. They took my weight, measurements, a few comparison labs, and vitals. He checked my balance, skin, incisions, pain level, mobility,mental health, and over all health. He was pleased with my Water, Fluid and Protein intake. I haven't lost really any of the muscle tone I had going into surgery. He encouraged me to step up to full liquids and mushy foods and begin exercising (not excessively...just walk faster and longer thank my usual 15 to 20 minutes a few times a day) to retain my lean muscles and to gradually step me up to pre surgery work outs. He said I was doing great and looked great. I won't go back for another month but his overall thing is nutrition...staying up on Vitamins, eating well and proportion, exercise. I dig that and all...but I was still geeked with my weight loss. I don't see where it came from but I'm glad its gone....FOREVER!!! There is no room in the inn for it to come back and live! I am thanking God in advance for continued healing, good health, and success!!! I feel great and I am sooooooo excited for the time ahead. I wish you all the best of all things good. Stay encouraged and lifted. Mwaaaahz!!! “I’d rather be a could-be if I cannot be an are; because a could-be is a maybe who is reaching for a star, I’d rather be a has-been than a might-have-been, by far; for a might have-been has never been, but a has was once an are.” ~ Milton Berle, American Comedian and Actor 1 weight_no_longer reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
