Six Month Check Up!
I had my 6 Month "Check Up" today..
I am down a total of 150 lbs from when I started on Aug 2013 @ 416 lbs and I am now 266 lbs). :)
I have lost a total of 114 Lbs since my surgery at the end of November 2013 (6 Months ago, technically I have lost 19-20 lbs per month since the surgery).
My surgeon was VERY happy to see how I am doing and said that I have almost reached the percentage to be considered a success (a few more pounds and to keep it off for at least a year or two), and that he is surprised that I have lost as much as I have.
He said with the sleeve they tend to lose at a slower rate and I lost on average, 15 lbs a month over the last 3 months since the last time he saw me.
He also told me that I should expect to start to slow down on the weight loss but I have other plans.. :)
I still feel that I have 56 lbs to go and I will be glad when I hit my personal goal and keep it off.. :)
I know my life has already been changed for the better (so much more energy and happier) and I plan to keep it this way..
