today is day 20 post op. While a few 1 day stalls and a slower pace than I had imagined - pretty darn happy with results and restrictive feeling.
When updating my tracker I realized since I started my journey Oct 7, 2012, I am 1/3 my way to goal.
On Oct 7 last year I turned 42. I was my heaviest ever and looked in the mirror and knew if I didnt get healthy I would die young leaving my wife and 3 young children (2,4,6) alone. Scared the crap out of me!
Lost some weight, then found a co workers wife who had a VSG about Halloween. Went for first doc visit Nov 15 and was 356. Was 333 day of surgery on Jan 16 and just so thrilled to be a third to goal.
As inspiration for all of us - please share what fraction of your journey you have completed. While pounds down are exciting - really exciting to think 1/3 of my excess weight is gone - and for the first time - hopefully forever!
