I am ONLY 13.5 lbs away from reaching my goal (140 lbs). I am confident I will be able to get there and looking forward to years and years ahead of feeling great, having lots of energy and enjoying my life and being with my family and friends.

Yesterday I had my one year check up at the bariatric surgery office – all my bloodwork came back fabulous and all my vitamin levels are doing great. My vitamin D is no longer low! I will be sticking with the vitamins and eating plan I have been using, since they are obviously working. The nurse practioner said their goal for patients is lose 50% of their weight in the first year. She said I was doing great and I’ve lost 82% so far. My BMI when I first went to their office back in Jan. 2009 was 52, my BMI now is 26.

7/10/10 Week 70 – 159.5
7/19/10 Week 71 – 159
7/23/10 Week 72 – 158
7/31/10 Week 73 – 153.5
(8/2/10 Weighin at the doctor’s office, last afternoon 157 lb)

I am starting experiment with some healthy recipes too. I posted two over on my other blog – Edamame with Asian-style Sauce and Quinoa Salad. I’ll post a couple more later in the week.

Health and Happiness, Lady Rose
