Follow up appointments

[michelecaples 224]

So I am here at my surgeons office for follow up. Is it only me or is anyone else afraid to be weighed that they will be disappointed?

I just had my follow up yesterday and I had those same feelings....not to mention its the middle of winter so I had on layers of clothing...but it went well I had a total lost of 24 pounds...dont worry bc the numbers won't be the same as pre op!

I found out that surgeons goals are def not the same as ours! Ive lost 55 in 4 months and he says I will be at his goal in 5 more lbs! Wtf. They swear that 60 percent if excess weight is the norm. Im thinking my butt better lose another 45!

I go in for my year follow up on the 28th. Im excited to step on the scale in thier office. Hell, I hope they make me a spokesperson or something... lol. Michele... my surgeon wanted me at 175.. I dont really get it because I would have still been considered overweight on the BMI chart. How did everything else go othere then his lame goal... Let us know

Everything went great. I was just shocked that they were pleased with my loss. Most people have lost at least 60to70 by this point. I havent even been able to exercise at all until yesterday. Im hoping to really knock this out and get to a very healtjy weight

Went for my 6mo check up last week... turned out great! 86lbs down....and he said all of my lab work was perfect...except my Vit. D level...I asked for a prescription for a bahama vacation for some sun so my health plan would pay for it...but couldnt get him to agree! gotta take a vit d pill once a week for 12 weeks.... bummer! Hope everyone elses visit came out ok too!

I am feeling fantastic!!!

I went to my 3 month post op one last week and was very disappointed as I had only lost 12 pounds since December 13

Did dr mention issue with your Water intake or something as to why?

No nothing just that I wasn't that big to start with so it will be slow. Which is totally different then what was said when I first started out. Was told I would lose 100 pounds in first 4 months.
