7 months out

Well not much more to report. I am 7 months post op and I hit 112 pounds since surgery and 150 pounds since October. I am able to wear some 1X tops (depending on the brand) and wear 2X knit pants. I want to go and try on a pair of jeans. I haven't worn jeans in about 20 years.

Its only 2 months until the wedding and I haven't even looked for anything to wear yet. I'm thinking of something in maybe a sage green. I think that would contrast the girls apple red dresses. I'm not sure, will have to wait until I go looking.

All is well here. Took George in for a complete physical last week. He is having some trouble walking. Haven't gotten the results back yet. But the doctor did tell us that one of his medications that he is on has the side effect of weakness in the legs. When he went to the clinic on Wed. we asked his counselor about that and she got us in to see the nurse and they have changed the one med. to a lower dose and added another one to counter act the symptoms. They said that we would be able to see a difference almost immediately. We picked up the meds last night and he will start taking them today. Well see what happens.

Well that is all for now, just wanted to update. Its really been a year since I had started to think about doing the gastric bypass. I didn't think that I would have all the support that I have had. I want to again thank everyone for their support, without it I don't know if I would have done this great. Thanks again.
