Here are some new photos. My first bikini in at least 25 years, probably closer to 30. I am much flatter in the morning, but hubby was anxious for me to model my new purchase! :o)

Another milestone!

ShellyK
Today I hit the 120 pounds lost milestone. If I lose 10 more I will be at a normal BMI for the first time since I was a teenager. I'm not sure if I will hit that or not. I am surprised that I have lost weight with as swollen as I still look and feel in certain areas, but my pants are getting big. My appetite is still not back yet, so I make sure to have a high protein shake daily along with the boatload of vitamins I need to take due to the gastric bypass. I don't absorb nutrients quite the same anymore and need to supplement.

Three Weeks, Back To Work

ShellyK
Well, I went back to work today, three weeks post-op. I did okay overall. I was sore and swollen by the end of the day, feeling a bit sausage-like. I came home and did some icing which helped. I took only Advil, but will take a pain pill at bedtime. I will add some pictures sometime this week.
