Weight Loss = Everything is Just Better

Oct 24, 2014

Month 4 just finishing of the 6-month pre-op program. I'm down 60+ lbs and honestly everything is just better. My house is cleaner, the dishes are washed everyday, the doggies are walked farther. I'm even flossing regularly!  WTF?  There is a spring in my step, I even fuss over my makeup and hair every morning. Why did I wait so long to take care of myself?

People are asking me: Are you sure you need surgery? Look how good you're doing without it!  And it is a tempting thought, and something I will evaluate as the 6-months ends. I have learned so much about me during this time and how the low-carb life could actually work for me. It is the first time I truly think I can do this.  Surgery is a tool - perhaps I may not need it anymore - but I'm not making that decision just yet.  I'll stay on track, knock off the pre-op details and just keep going. I think it all comes down to the rest of my life - can I maintain this w/o additional tools?

I'll see.
