What is your why?

I'm doing this because I need a kidney transplant and my kidney surgeon won't do the surgery until I lose 100 lbs. He suggested I do this so here I am. Unfortunately after jumping through all the hoops to get to this point, my kidneys have dropped to about 15% function. So I'm literally doing this to save my life.

My why scares me even more!

No, not yet, although if I weren't having the RNY I would be getting prepared for an access point instead.

Thank you for your prayers Snow, I truly appreciate them all!

Congrats to all of us December dates!! Whoo hoo! I'm getting so excited.... And so freaking nervous. I've never had surgery of any kind... So ready for a new me, but nervous about the surgery. I can't wait to be on the other side of all this. I'll be praying for all of the December babies on this list. We can do it!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
