Checking in again with another progress report 8 months post op.
I officially hit 200lbs lost !! I'm down to 269 from 469 and hopefully very soon I will have lost 1/2 my bodyweight
I'm off all prescriptions outside of pain and muscle relaxers for my back injury, and even those are being used much less.
My BP today was 106/75 without meds which I find amazing
I'm now wearing a size 40 shorts - I started at 56 !!
I had my iron re-tested and am glad to report I've raised it into the "normal" range and am still working on getting it to the high end of the scale.
All in all everything is still going very very well. No real issues to report which I'm happy as a clam about
I'm very lucky we've been married almost 21 yrs and she's always been there for me. Heavy or not she loves me which is a great thing. The fact that she's beautiful is just icing on the cake ( or butter on the ribeye).
