Six Month Post Op
Hi all,
Statistics as of 31st March 2012
Highest 440 lbs / Current 399 lbs / Goal 220 lbs / Lost 41lbs
Highest 200 Kg / Current 181 Kg / Goal 100 Kg / Lost 19 Kg
A person who has come to the point in life when a change is required.
Married with children that have now almost grown up and left the nest, it's a time for me.
No change is not an option.
The thought of having surgery has not come likely and has been a constant development over many months.
Following a number of visits to the local doctor, my appointment to visit the hospital finally came through in June 2011.
Initial weight was 200Kg, reducing to 190 Kg at the time of the 1st hospital appointment. BMI was 56.
My second appointment to hospital was to see the Dietician at the end of September 2011 and now I have had PCT approval for funding end of November 2011.
The last visit to the hospital was end March 2012 to see the Dietician again and head Nurse so hopefully I may have surgery before the end of 2012
.
So for now I am searching the web, gathering the information to support my final outcome.
My current weight at the time of updating & writing this is 181.7Kg, BMI 51.41.(March 2012).
Yes I am worried, and really concerned, but I need to remain positive and focused for the future.
Any support would be appreciated.
