I met with the nutritionist today, who by the way is new because MINE LEFT! and then met with Megan ... My NP.
Heres the outcome of todays very long visit :
I am 3m 1w 4d post op.
I have lost a total of 67 official ( day of surgery to now )lbs + the 10 preop for a total of 77LBS!
Officially that means I have lost an amazing 80% of my excess body weight. This is what has them worried. At 3mo out most expect to see about 30-40%. Im at 80%! We will be watching close to make sure I dont loose too much, and shes watching to be sure this rapid loss is not effecting me or my health - so far blood looks fantastic!
Inches wise... I was wowed. Remember I still dont * see * it in the mirror so here you go:

3m1w4d post op - Weight : 155 clothed & Menstrating ( a big deal! +/- 3-5lbs)

I need to continue daily to fight for my health and why I did this. This means I need to eat, drink and live well! I need to incorporate more excersize and start reshaping my body.
My skin is hanging, dying is very uncomfy and they are working with me to correct some of the issues...
Im keeping up this great fight!
