my journey from 612 to 200

So I am 3 weeks post op and feeling great. Im on my to a better and wonderful new life. I finally get to do all the things normal people do...go to theme parks and get on the rides. Ride go carts. Shop at the mall. All those wonderfull thing. And all thanks to the sleeve surgery. First 7 days post op and I had lost 29 pounds with a total weight loss of 74 pounds. Its two weeks later from the 1st weigh since the loss of the 29 pounds and not sure how much I lost yet. But I'm in my way to my goal weight of 200 pounds. I started at 612 now I'm 538. Ill keep everyone updated on my journey
