1yr follow up appt
just finished my 1yr follow up @ TWH. My actual surgery was February 26/15. Well I have had it confirmed this was a good decision. As of today I have lost 232 pounds and 51 cm's from my waist. Not sure what I expected... But this is pretty darn good. I can hardly wait to see what the next year will bring.
For what it is worth my focus was small steps then building. I started by walking about 3000 steps a day, really not even that for the first few weeks. A year later I do 12000. I walk first thing in the morning, helps me start the day on the right foot.
Don't pressure yourself. It will come. When you have doubts ( we all do), remember it will come. Good luck with your surgery and I look forward to reading about your success.
Thank you so much! I'm currently on optifast and on day 12. It's so hard! I've had a few "tastes" of food - like dipping my finger in the food to get the taste or having a miniscule bite of something - temptation too high. I hope I haven't hurt myself and feeling real bad now.
I keep thinking of afterwards and that is helping. I keep reading wonderful stories on here and that is inspiring!
