Yeah,
Thanks, it is crazy, I thought I was daring to dream too big when I thought I might lose like 60 before this appointment, BUT in order to lose that much you have to have that much extra to lose. My surgeon was very happy, I don't know if they do this everywhere or not, they hooked me up to a machine that gives them "measurements" is how they say it in english, it tells them how much muscle mass, bmi, weight from fat, weight from water etc. Well that is what made the surgeon happy was the stats, I haven't lost muscle mass, and he said approx 80% of my weight loss was from fat, the other from water weight. Now, I have no idea how accurate this machine could be, I mean they stuck like three prongs on me two on my hand and one one my foot I believe. But they did it the day before surgery and of course today to get the comparison, so has anyone else out there had that done too? I don't know, they may do it everywhere I guess. Anyways, thanks for the kind words!
