I had my 3 month post-op checkup yesterday....

Lab were, well awesome!!!

  • A1c = 5.0 (no longer type 2 diabetic)
  • Cholesterol, and Triglycerides were in the good range for the first time since, ever.
  • BP = 117 / 74

Doctor wants me off all meds other than vitamins, calcium, B12, PPI, and my Gallbladder meds.  Currently I only take a BP med, I have been off all others since surgery on 4/4/13.

Originally I was told I would loose 60 to 75 percent of my excess body weight with in the first year, I was down 76% at 3 months.

 

Yesterday was a good day!

Hurray!   Isn't it amazing how quickly the sleeve and the eating plan resolve serious health issues?  Keep up the good work!

You must be bursting!  I hope to have the same kind of stats in a few months when I go back to my PCP.  And super congratulations on the weight loss.  Show 'em what you can do!
