Week 7 Post Op- Weigh In

Happy Week 7

It's hard to believe it's been 7 weeks since my gastric bypass surgery. Over the last 2 weeks in particular, I can tell a huge difference in my energy level and stamina. I feel like the old me... only better and lighter ;o)

Week 7 weigh in results blew my mind today! I lost 5.8 lbs this week. FIVE point EIGHT. Seriously unreal!

I started working out last week (besides just walking a couple days a week). Now most days of the week, I've been hitting the gym... doing the treadmill, bike, and weights. And I'm also going to a few classes in the evening just for the fun of it with a girlfriend.

The video camera thing is still not working for me, so I thought I'd post a before and present shot for ya...

this is me at the start of the surgery process back in November 2010:
this is an improv picture of me (and Charlie) taken yesterday - March 1st, 2011 - 45.8 lbs lost (7 weeks after surgery):

PS: I weigh less today than I did when I graduated High School in 2000 :o) happy day!
