A year out. A little late, but oh well.
Jan 26, 2010
So I've Finally gotten around to posting my yearly update. I've kinda stopped posting, and I apologize for that. No long had to post my measurements because I can do it right on the health tracker, and other than that, my weightloss hasn't been too exciting since august. I guess what they say, married life really packs on the pounds. LOL. well not in my case, but I haven't lost ANY weight since I was married in August. I do everything right- I drink 64-72 oz of water a day, get in 80-100 grams of protein a day, exercise at LEAST 4 times a week, and I try to stay away from sweets and carbs, I do slip up, but I really get my vitamins, protein, water, exercise, everything we're supposed to get, and I do not see results, its very upsetting.And now to make matters worst. My doctor's office is refusing to see me because I have a balance due from my surgery. I pay $200 a month because my insurance cut me off and I did not know this until after my surgery, so I have to pay for the surgery. I have a balance of close to $5000 at my surgeons office alone. I get a lot of hassel from them, but whatever. I'm doing what I can without a job. The hospital is only getting $20 a month, and thats a much bigger bill. Thank goodness there is no interest on medical bills! I'd be screwed! Anyways... Regardless of all of that, I'm still happy with the surgery and my results, I would like to make my goal and get about 15 less lbs, but if not, I'm happy where I am. and I mean that. I'm healthy, look great, and happier than I've been in a long long time.
But my pictures say it all: This first ones are from the month after my surgery, the furthest one on top is from my heaviest prior to surgery and the second row is from just a week ago- at a year out after surgery. I have lost 121 lbs since my heaviest weight, and 100 lbs since surgery! I am just so happy, even if it costs me my savings account. It was worth it. Be so thankful if you didn't have to pay for this, be SO thankful.
