It's been awhile since I have written. I am at almost 20 weeks post-op, and I have lost about 73 pounds, almost 60% of what I want to lose. Just 2-3 lb. more reach that mark. They say you lose 60% with surgery alone, the rest is based on the time and effort I want to put in to lose the rest. It is definitely going slower, but with spurts of still losing. I am wearing a generous size 18 or a small 20. I bought some 16's but they are generally small. Lots more people are noticing my weight loss. I told one of my classes that I had the surgery (we were talking about re-sale shops, I mentioned my weight loss, and a girl asked me how I did it, so I told them). They were very cool about it.
I am eating all kinds of normal foods, just really small amounts. I am choosing low-fat options. I ate some candy around Halloween, but nothing like I used to. Absolutely no pop. As always, I need to put in more exercise. I know that it will really speed things up and boost my metabolism. Life is busy but overall, all is well.
