Oh no. I'm not deterred. I will be getting sleeved on April 15th. ????

I took a week of work. While I did tell a close friend at my job, HR did not know. I just took PTO, not medical leave. And even if you are taking medical leave, you are not obligated to divulge what you are have done.

Happy Dance!! I'm 4/23!!

Since I've been losing weight so fast I shop at consignment shops or Goodwill.
Once I'm at my goal weight (17 lbs to go) I will shop for a new wardrobe.

Hair loss is temporary. Your sleeve is forever! Don't let potential hair loss deter you. Would you rather have slightly thinner hair for a few months or be fat for the rest of your life?

I'm scheduled for April 1! April fools Day? Yikes. Here's hoping my surgeon isn't a prankster and rearranges things so that my arm flies up every time I burp or something.

I just got my date on Thursday. I'm April 15th!

I know that those of us who have already had VSG surgery go through the ups and downs of how much weight should I have lost by now, do people see me any differently when they look at me, why can't I see much of a change.
A very dear friend of mine told me when I first started my journey to be sure to take pictures, take pictures, and take more pictures. This would be the way you can really tell how much thinner you are getting, and how much your body has actually changed because when we look in the mirror, we so many time still see the fat person we were before surgery because our minds haven't caught up with our bodies yet.
I know that I still have quite a ways to go, but putting my pictures side-by-side today, I could actually see a BIG difference, and it made me feel really good. So if you are feeling like a Debbie Downer, and questioning whether or not you did the right thing, hopefully you have pictures of yourself you can go back and compare. Put them side-by-side, and I guarantee it will put a smile on your face.
I also want to give a big shout out to a few ladies who have been nothing but positive influences on me during this journey, and I'm only 3 months post op! Thanks and much love to @@LipstickLady , @@bobbyswife , @@Elode , @@proudgrammy , @RJ'S/beginning , and @@Kindle . You guys have helped me in ways that you will never know, and I can't thank you enough for your encouragement and support.

Tube is out! New lease Iife! Ty all again for support! Now I need to focus on sustaining my self. Out of practice. Focus on Water and Protein. First time in over 2 months I get to try and sustain myself. Feeling good! Can't wait to try my bike finally! But I need to not over due it as still weak and need to build my stamina up and muscles!

Great news. No cancer treatment just a watch and see every 6 mos. And I go soon to hopefully get tube out! Ty tyall for the prayers for my wife, it worked!

@@nprcowboy Block whoever sent you that message and keep it moving. You don't owe anyone here a darn thing, much less an apology. You do what you need to heal and tend to your wife.
