une_nouvelle_vie
I've been overweight for most of my life and I'm now 43 years old. Each year I've gotten steadily larger and in January of this year I tipped the scales at 446 pounds. I sat and cried for an hour straight and then decided that no matter how scared I was of the surgery, I was doing to explore it.
I called and made an appointment to see Dr Trace Curry on February 14th and left it in his hands whether or not I'm healthy enough to go through surgery. He immediately put me to work with one of his dieticians to begin losing weight so that I could be as healthy as possible on the day of surgery.
Since February I've lost 72 pounds as of today at 374. I'm scheduled for surgery on June 23rd and I'm really excited and really scared. I'm doing my pre-op Medifast diet now to try to get down to 360 by that date.
I'm here to get tips, support, and to make some new friends.
