I got my 6 month lab results back today, and everything looked pretty good, except my ALT/AST (liver) were still high. They were down from before surgery, so that’s good. We’ll watch those. My zinc was borderline, so I’m adding that, and because I’m still losing hair, I’m also to increase my protein. The zinc and protein increase should stop my hair loss. Everything else looked really good!!
6 months and 77 lbs gone

Well, 77 lbs gone! I hit a plateau right after Christmas and it didn’t break until this past weekend! I just went to Dr. Richardson for my 6 month post-op checkup last Friday. Had my 6 month labs drawn yesterday. Hopefully those will come back okay.
I talked with a nutritionist from NewStart and read her my averages on my food intake and she said I was doing well, but my carbs were a little low. I’m going to keep them where they are for now.
