So I am now three months post op and a few days. :) I went for my 3 month check up. I have lost 67 pounds since jan. 5th. That is pretty unbelieveable to me. Still have a looong way to go. Got scolded on not taking my vitamins like I should, not taking ANY iron, and low on my protien. They did lab work for the first time - everything was normal except my iron, Vitamin D, and B1 - they were just a tad on the lower side... :/ Uh oh. I've got to do much much better. I got some liquid Iron so that should help IF i can get it down... I wore a dress to a wedding for the first time in years....it felt so good, but I felt very self-concious, because I'm not used to wearing them anymore. It took my buying a total of 4 dresses (they ALL fit) for me to wear that one..lol. Anyways - heres some pics. From the left - preop night before surgery - then one month postop, two months postop, and then finally far right 3 months post op.
Here is a picture of me and my girls - but I'm wearing a dress! :)
Here are just the two side by side - before and now - since you can't see the ones above easily because they are so small...
Now looking at all of these "front" pics - I think I have a case of scoliosis! Look how i'm all lopsided in everyone of these pictures... I wonder if I compensate leaning to my right side from carrying my babies on my left hip...??
