Greetings

I haven't blogged much. I found myself wanting to blog myself through this experience. I am not telling people IRL so my personal blog was out. I am not really blogging for an audience but wanted a place to put my feelings out there and know that I wasn't alone or the first one to feel that way. I am so thankful for this site because it is a melting pot of btdt and just starting the journey. I have looked into lapbanding for years and years. I found this site so long before my insurance was willing to pay for the procedure. I am currently waiting for my surgery date (4/21) and am working my way to a lower carb higher protien lifestyle. I have purposed to walk 2.1 miles for 5 days a week until surgery so I will be logging 10 1/2 miles a week. So far so good. I dont really have much more for now. I just wanted a place to put what I'm thinking down so I can clear my head of the looping questions and feelings.

Hey Bunny! I'm trying to do 2 miles, but I'm finding it difficult to get motivated daily. Happy blogging! -BG
