The 1st 8 Pounds

By Amanda1982

· 387 views

So I got up at 4am this morning ready to do my Leslie Sanson walk away the pounds DVD (Walk and Kick). Now I haven’t been weighed since I got the pre-op diet from the nutritionist on 02/10 and on that day I was at 276.2lbs. I got the scale from the laundry room praying it didn’t say 276.2 after all I have been following the pre-op diet to the “T” not cheating at all. To my surprise the scale read 268lbs. This is such a great feeling. I know eight pounds is not a lot but for me this is big. This means that I have stuck with something and whatever I’m doing is working. I wanted to share this with you guys because you have been such great supporters since I started my journey. Good Luck to you all!!!

    Great job, girl!!! 8 pounds makes a huge difference! You aren't in your 270s anymore! YAY! I'm not going to weigh myself until I go in for surgery. I don't want to get discouraged and I want to be shocked when I see how much I've lost doing the pre-op diet. 11 days for you and 12 days for me until surgery! We are on our way!!!
