Im going to start off with the good things. I am 4 months and 23 days post op and I have officially lost 80lbs  my bmi has gone from 51 to 41.5  and I have gone from a size 26-28 pants to a 20-22 and a size 3x-4x top to a xl ( I can shop in the normal people section now :D) Another nsv that i am pumped about is that my favorite towel finally fits around me and instead of having a gap it over laps. 

Now the not so good stuff I had posted before that I have been having gallbladder attacks and I had another one last night. They seem to happen every 10 days :( I was referred to a dr and he said Im going to have to get it removed. So Im going to see Dr. Starr on Wednesday and Im hoping he will cut the dang thing out of me. Until it gets removed though the Dr from emerge has put me on what he calls a rabbit diet. So other than my protein shakes I cant eat anything that a rabbit wouldn't eat.  But on the bright side I should lose at least a few pounds from this lol.

well, that's awesome, and yowza, about the gallbladder. You'll feel so much better once they get that out of there.

Sending positive energy.

wow 80 pounds is a lot of weight, think carrying around 8-10 pound bags of potatoes every day. Awesome.

Better without the gallbladder
