Three month progress report, with measurements and pic

[GotProlactinoma 458]

Ok, I am a couple days short of my third month surgiversary, but it's the weekend so I took the measurements today. I started at 205 lbs, in a tight size 18, low obese BMI for years, couldn't lose anything. (The pituitary tumor prolactinoma does NOT help! They are highly correlated with obesity). I lost about 13 lbs on pre op diet and now I am down 22 lbs since surgery. Total weight loss has been 35 pounds. I'm no longer obese, just overweight. Can almost get into a size 14 but the thunder thighs still won't let me.

So, my measurement losses today after 3 months:

arm: lost 1.75"

under boob, smallest "waist": lost 6 inches

belly button waist: lost 12" (what???? Had to measure three times to check for errors!! Wow)

hips: lost 6.5"

thigh: lost 2.5"

so happy to see progress like this. Hope it continues.

Thanks! This was truly the best thing I ever did for myself. I can finally exercise without all the fat getting in the way. I have gotten rid of the sweet tooth. And the sleeve provides the best Portion Control. It's up to me to eat only healthy food and keep working out. I am on my way. These three months were going to go by anyway. And now that obesity is behind me!
