I had the Lap-Band Surgery on December 14! Pretty excited about that! The pre-procedure diet was a bitch for the first couple of days, but towards the end it got a little easier. On Dec 2 when I went in for all of my pre-procedure testing we took measurements and weighed in. Here are my numbers:
Dec 2 -
Height 5'6
Weight 266.5
Upper Arm 15 1/5 inches
Chest 52 inches
Hips 55 1/5 inches
Thigh 26 inches
Abdomen 56 inches
BMI 43.0
Fat % 49.5% (how disgusting!!!)
Not very impressive numbers at all, then again that's why I had the surgery.
Post surgery pic, 5 holes!!! and so swollen!
yay for feel good meds! lol
On Dec 21 I weighed in at 250.8! Which delights me! Only shows that there is going to be nothing but progress from here!
Since Surgery:
*I have went from a 2xl scrub pants to a xl!!!
*I was able to put on a pair of jeans I have not fit in for 2 years!!!
*Signed back up at AnyTime Fitness this week. Went and did an hour of cardio today, attempted some strength training, but only being a little over a week out from surgery, that did not feel to nice on my incisions.
*Today I put on a shirt that was one WAY to tight and it was actually a little bit big!!!
So I am super excited to see what my future holds and excited to see all the changes that are waiting ahead!!!
