My Journey
Apr 07, 2009
Starting weight on the day of my first consult was 331lbs. I had to have several tests and six months of diet modification before I could be cleared for surgery. Surgery was finally set for February 12, 2009. Presurgery weight was 321lbs. I have experienced some minor setbacks. I am gaining strength with each passing day. At my six week check up I weighed 286lbs. I am so thrilled with my weight loss. To celebrate I went to a salon and had a pedicure, manicure and a new hair style. It is wonderful to celebrate events in ways that take care of myself instead of being focused on food.
