April Sleevers -- 6 Month Progress

[Inner Surfer Girl 12,015]

I just had my six-month post-op follow-up appointment. I thought I was doing well, but it was great to get a professional opinion. Fortunately, I was right.

I can't believe how quickly the last six months have flown by. I am more mobile, and I am looking like a melting snowman!

I still have a long way to go, but since I was to a point where even losing 10 pounds was impossible pre-op, it is a miracle that I am losing so well now.

How are the other April Sleevers doing?

My 6 month check up is on October 27th but doing well so far...

I hope everyone is doing well!! I am already preparing to get quotes for plastics...

I just had my six-month appt and I'm down 100 lbs! I've gone from 325 to 225. My surgeon is very pleased, and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Goal is 175ish (I'm 5'8").

Good luck, fellow April sleevers!

Great to hear!

It is so weird to actually look forward to doctor's appointments but I definitely looked forward to my six-month follow up.

Haha, I agree @innersurfergirl! I used to dread getting on the scale at the dr and now I look forward to it!
