Pre Op

203 pounds, 111 pounds lost, 40 pounds to go...

RNY has given me a second chance at life and I feel so blessed. I am in size 14's and 16's in bottoms and L and XL in tops. I eat anywhere from 900-1200 calories per day, mostly proteins and good carbs. I still steer clear of sugar and white carbs. Weight loss has slowed some but not enough to discourage me or get me down. I forget to take my vitamins sometimes. My 6 month appoinment is coming up in October and I am anxious to see how my labs turn out. I have a consultation at the end of this month with my PS about panni removal and tummy tuck.
Recent WOW Moments:
People keep telling my husband how beautiful his wife is and it makes him proud.
I bought a pair of jeans one weekend and by the next weekend they were already too big.
I said hello to one of my students from last school year. He said, "Who are you and how do you know my name?"
People actually seek me out to talk to me now and they make eye contact.

Congrats!!!  You look great!

I have a question for you...I've lost 108 lbs and have about 46 or so to go.  I have a little panni going on too.  When did you know the timing was right for the PS consult?  I don't want to go too soon.  (If the panni isn't too bad after I'm at goal I may just leave it, but it's already there and I'm sure it's not going to shrink so more than likely something will need done.)

I went ahead and scheduled because there is a 6 month process to go through so my insurance will approve it. I just want to get things rolling.
