Well I made it to 1 year post op...woo hoo. Didn't quite make my goal of 164.5 lbs but almost. My check up last Thursday in Edmonton went great and I think everyone including Dr. Karmali was very pleased. The dietitian said I have lost 89% of my excess body fat. My goal still is to get to 154 lbs so I have a normal BMI. I will get there but I'm not too concerned when.
I have a panni consult with Dr. DeGara in February 2014. I am so looking forward to getting that done.
After my appt we drove down to Calgary to see family. Was able to do some shopping. Its so nice to be able to buy 11/12 pants and large shirts. I did have some cramping a couple of weeks ago but I think it was constipation. The doctor ordered a ct scan just to rule out Diverticulitis.
My husband and family have been a big support so I am very fortunate. Off to the Dominican for a wedding in a month and I can't think of a better way to celebrate the new me and all my hard work.
