I am starting to freak out. Worrying something will go wrong and I won't get to have surgery. Worrying about after surgery will I be able to stick to the rules. Im freaking myself out!! I have my pre op class on thursday and two weeks from today is surgery. Praying for some peace.....

I Just went through the same feelings this past weekend! But, after thinking about everything, I have concluded that I Can Do This! WE Can do this!! Before surgery, our tummys are still big and hungry but After surgery, it'll be different. We will be able to stick to it bcs we're going to eat differently and get more active. We're going to have healthier lives and better times ahead! Stay Positive. You can do this!! :-)

You'll be at the top of the stairs and hopping into your coaster seat before you know it!! And don't get sick after the ride... OK?!!

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
