1st Month Update
Sep 28, 2012
I am almost at my 1 month post op point.
I am still not meeting my protien/water, but I am really close. I am still figuring out what works for me and suffer from minor indigestion during most days.
The good news is my blood pressure had dropped down to normal (120/80) about a week after surgery. I have had blood pressure issues since I was in middle school. Before surgery I was consitently reading 160/110 with 6 different BP medications. So this is huge, huge for me. I am near tears everytime I see the new BP reading. This was my reason for getting sleeved. I honestly knew I had to beat BP before it beat me. I am so glad I had the surgery.
The other added bonus is that I have lost a total of 40lbs, pre and post op. I'm shopping in my closet with clothes that were too small a couple of months ago.
I am very thankful.
