Very brief Weigh-in Update (470)

So, I just got home from my three-month checkup with my surgeon. I confessed all of my diet/exercise sins and was scolded. They couldn't complain too much, however since I lost about 30 pounds in a month. I honestly wasn't sure that my loss was going to be as good as it was. I could have done better. I should have done better. And yet, it is still a nice loss. In total I have lost about 130 pounds - that is a person. I cant quite wrap my head around it. Even as I stood on the scale I felt mystified that I have somehow lost so much. And yet I have so far to go. Will I ever even make it to the 200's? Who knows.

The visit went pretty well in general! My blood pressure was kinda low, but hopefully nothing to worry about. It could explain why I am always so tired. I really need to check in with my pcp, but I am in the process of trying to find a new one right now. I have not seen him post-op at all. Maybe I'll be able to get off of my blood pressure medication soon.

I got a keychain from my surgeon! It says "SCB 100 Club" - SCB is for Suncoast Bariatrics. It was given to me for losing a hundred pounds. I wonder what they will give me for losing 200?

My personal goal is to lose another 100 pounds before my six month checkup on September 18th. I think that if I get my protein, drink my fluids, and start exercising again I can do it. That's 33 pounds a month. If I cant do that I would at least like to get under 400 by then - that's 70 pounds, or about 23 pounds a month. I can at least do that, I think.

Also, I start with a new therapist on July 9th - I honestly cannot wait! He is a triathlete and horse trainer an is all about accountability and self-betterment. He is described as being very proactive - this is what I need!

Unrelated but still exciting for me - I also finally made a dental appointment for myself. I am afraid that I wont fit in the dental chair, but I am not going to let that fear stop me anymore.

As always, thanks for reading!
