Well - @ my 6 mo post appt date - so thought I would do an update today. Things have been up and down with the weight loss. It is VERY VERY slow now - but still coming off. I am down to 190.6 lbs, so have 40 lbs to go prior to plastics. Havent started all the pre-do stuff for the plastics yet - gonna weight until much closer. I tried on a size 14 at the store the other day and still have about 15-20 lbs to go before that will fit (mainly due to the excess in stomach area). I also did my measurements today.They are:
Chest: 36 3/4:: breast: 45:: waist: 40:: hips:46 1/2
Thats a total of (in inches) lost in the following areas:
Chest: 12 1/4:: breast: 10 (YUK :-D):: waist: 7 1/4:: hips: 9 1/2 (not bad overall considering its only 6 months and thats with the excessive skin in the hips & waist).
Still need to put my exercise routine back into play (probably why the weight loss has slowed down so badly) - just dont seem to have the energy or the time. Taking my vitamins / protein regularly might help with the energy part - yes yes yes I know.. BAD GIRL! I plan to restart my vitamins etc this week. I need to get into a routine - but things are so hectic lately, one thing after another, that I seem to continue to let "myself" slack in the important for me areas. Typical.. now hopefully I will pull my head out of my arse and fix it for real this time.
My six mo post op appt was r/s for October 11 due to the surgeon being out of the office all September. So.. it will be almost month 7 when i see him. I still have 3 weeks to make a huge dent in the weight loss .. and I know that if I start my vitamins, protein and exercise routine back up full force - I can lose up to 15 lbs in 3 weeks.,. so (((fingers crossed))).
