Just wanted to share my excitement

Even though I am waiting for my WLS approval, I still consider myself on the losers bench, lol. I realize that I have to start now with eating healthy and exercising in order for things to work after the WLS. I am still addicted to fry bread, which I am working on.

I wanted to share my NSV today. I don't use a scale but I have a belt test that I do. I have five holes in my belt. At my heaviest, I had to use to very first hole. Now, I have to create a sixth hole. Isn't that awesome? I am so proud of myself. So, I am hoping by the time I get surgery I can be in the 200's.

 

Thanks for listening!

Holy Moley, that is awesome!!!

You are on the right track already.  I've seen so many successful VSGers who jump on the WL wagon before surgery and get the weight off quick.  The more you lose before surgery, the less you have to lose after.  Awesome deal!!!

I think that's a great attitude.  Every pound you lose pre-op means fewer you'll need to lose post-op :D  Congrats on your belt victory!

And I think I'm happy that I don't know what fry bread is, since I think I'd be addicted to it as well.

Thanks  so much everyone for the awesome support! I really need that.

 

Gwen, i am not even going to share the SIMPLE recipe because I don't want to be your virtual enabler, lol

Much love and keep up the good work!
