Two month update!
Jan 10, 2013
Wow it's been almost two months since surgery for me! Feels like just yesterday I was still doing pre op stuff and anxiously awaiting insurance submission. Going to make this a brief update. I'm down 43lbs post op an I feel AMAZING. 63 all together. I know it could have been a bit more but I have gotten a little off track over the holidays. I hate to admit that being so early out but I did. Had some emotional issues come up over the last month or so and it's been a bit hard. But I'm still happy with my progress and I know I will only do better from here. I feel amazing. I can live life again. Pre op at 380lbs+ I was in so much pain physically. I don't think people even really knew how bad it was for me. I couldn't walk down the block with out being out of breath or feeling like my body would give out. I can finally live in society again. Do silly things that most people take for granted. Go up a flight of stairs, walk down the block with out feeling like I'm going to die. Go through a turn style again in the subway with out people gawking at me because I have to go through side ways. I had outgrown New York City. Now I'm finally feeling like I can actually live here again and it feels really great!!
I celebrated my birthday this week- 24! Yikes the years have passed lol but I feel I look younger and feel better then I have since I was 18. I started this year at 380+ I was honestly pushing 400lbs at my biggest, though I don't have my heighest weight documented. Today I'm 316lbs. Only 16 pounds left to get out of the 300's forever!!!! I can't even believe it! SOOOO thankful I did this! Best thing I've ever done! It can only get better from here!
