14 Weeks Post-Op!
Sep 24, 2013
I am 14 weeks Post-Op and down exactly 50 pounds. I’m 33 pounds away from my initial weight loss goal. It’s been quite the journey so far, and it’s not without its challenges. I’m far from perfect, and there are still instances in which I make poor choices.
I am trying to improve slowly every day. I wake up with a fresh attitude and I do my best to succeed. I’ve gone from a size 22 pants to a size 14, and they are already a bit loose. I was wearing 2XL or 3XL in some cases, and now I’m wearing a medium or large.
It’s an excellent feeling. I feel better about myself physically and mentally. I haven’t been as successful with the physical activity, and that’s something I know I have to improve on. I’ve recently acquired my career dream job, but it consists of sitting for 12 hours a day. Being active is so important regardless, but in my case it’s EXTREMELY important.
I am still so early out; I can’t wait to see the changes and opportunities for a healthier life this decision will bring me in the future. Although there have been times when I’ve wondered why in the world I did this to myself, I don’t regret it for a second. Best of luck to those of your on your own journeys!
