Week 17 Post Op Update

Jan 15, 2014

Been meaning to do a blog so here it is. It has been 17 weeks since surgery and I am down another 5 lbs. that is 79 since surgery, 105 since start of program and 113 since September of 2012. Only 12 lbs to my next goal! Hitting the gym 5 days a week (three days upper body and 2 days lower with cardio at ever workout). Also at the last belt hole in my second belt since all this started, time to make new holes! I am down from wearing 54 pants and 4X Shirts to wearing size 46 pants and 2-3x shirts. I could not be happier. I finaly nailed down what I am going to stick at diet wise. With the DS there is allot of different opinions on what and how to eat, full fat, low carbs what ever, so what I do is 1500-2000 cals, keep my carbs under 70, and low fat and 120 grams or more of protein a day., My doc told me to do 50% protein 30% carb and 20% fat. I am taking 2000 mg of calcium, 20 mg of Iron and A ADEK multi-vitamin (3 a day). I am waiting to get the results of my 3-4 month labs.
