I hit my next milestone of 75 pounds gone - I'm at -76.5 to be exact!!!! Below are pictures and if you click on my June blogs over to the side, you can compare them to my before pictures.
I'm only 2 pounds away to having less than 100 pounds to lose. That will be exciting for me - it's been a long time that I've been less than 100 pounds overweight.
I'm wearing size 18/20 tops and size 22 bottoms right now. That down from 26/28 tops and size 26 bottoms pre-surgery. Only a few more sizes and I'll be out of plus size clothes - that hasn't been my reality since middle school!
My BMI has gone from 54.58 before surgery to a current BMI of 41.85. About 12 more pounds and I'll be obese class 2 instead of obese class 3 which is the morbid obesity category. It will be nice to be just regular obese rather than morbidly obese. : )
I'm doing good overall. My biggest stress right now is I'm losing a lot of hair. It's a common side effect of rapid weight loss. I'm taking a biotin supplement the dietician recommended - hopefully it slows down the hair loss. Once I stop losing so rapidly and my weight starts to level out and I can eat a bit more, the hair loss should slow down. In the meantime, keep your fingers crossed for me that the biotin kicks in.
Not much else to report. More pictures at the 100 pound mark - only 23.5 more pounds!!!!
As always, thanks to everyone for your continued support!
