Umm, Wow, I mean Holy Crap! Shocking. ~ and that sounded bad. It's my first response and you are the first post I looked at at this website. I am in more shock is what I am trying to say... I am floored! Jaw on the ground. Do you realize how unbelievable your weight loss is? I am looking at the blinking cursor and getting fearful that I will have this process eventually. It's unnerving and surreal. I've been to classes for my program, nutritionalists, the APRN and exercise physiologist and psych eval And I am doing what they are requesting. I've been to groups with past GI surgery participants and heard their stories plugging away at the requirements however... The impact of what you have done is incredible! IT HAS JUST HIT ME. Sorry I didn't mean to yell. You just made it real right at this moment. Your experience has been a teaching moment and I am the student who just got it. Thanks for your post.
