Sleeved the same day!! Yay!! I've been strolling the neighborhood 15 minutes a day....

Thank you for the inspiration !

Well Indy- ill send a prayer up for ya!!

Had sleeve surgery JULY 2nd!! I called it my independence day!! I've struggled with weight problems all my life it seems... Although looking back at my pre- mommie years, I wasn't half bad. For the last 13 years I've started a diet every Monday it seems - rarely made it past lunch before I was off of my " diet ". Making the decision to have wls was not easy... I'd been successful losing weight on WW- but gained the 36 pounds back over about a years time. I'd reached my highest weight ever of 250, and absolutely hated looking at myself in the mirror- I started buying xxl - something I resisted for years. It got to the point that I was looking at pictures of myself over the years n all I saw was me - overweight. It really made me realize how long I'd been struggling with this weight. My 20's 30's n now I'm 42- I decided the second half of my life would be different - boy did my family offer resistance - I was disappointed they didn't support my decision. They kept saying I look good , suggested that I try diet again... I got to the point that I cried , but I did not relent. I've loss 15 pounds since my pre-op diet, which I started one week prior to my surgery date. I can't say enough how excited I am about my decision!!
