1 Year Surgiversary
It’s been almost a year! Oh my March 19th is my 1 year surgery anniversary. I went to see my surgeon on 9/19/2011 weighing in at 262 pounds. On March 19th, exactly 6 months later I went into surgery weighing 234.4 lbs. Today I weighed in at 131.6 lbs!!
Are you on the fence, is this for you? Are you willing to do the work? Will you change your lifestyle? Will you count your calories, keep track of your water and take your vitamins? I can’t answer those questions for you. But if you will do those things, this WILL work. You might not lose as fast, you might lose faster, you might not decide that running 20 miles a week is for you, you might find a new passion. I’m not sure what your journey will look like but I can tell you mine has been awesome.
I don’t make excuses for not playing with my kids, I’ve found my passion for exercise and horses again. I have so much energy! I still deal with crappy things, my life isn’t perfect but if pre-surgery me could talk to post surgery me, she would see a completely different person. On top of losing the weight, I’ve graduated from college (finally!) and I’m half way through my MBA too. Anyway enough blathering, here are some pics because you know that’s why you’re here!
