Hi everyone I am scheduled 11-12-13 @9am. I'm very excited/nervous/but ready. My insurance is paying for my surgery so I had to go through a 6mo process. I started at 275 6mo ago now at 265. I am on bp meds and my cholesterol is high and I also suffer with acid reflux. I'm ready to be done with the surgery part of this. I've only been put to sleep once for a very minor surgery so lil anxious about that. I have had 3 c-sections and have a pretty high pain tollerance so I hope that plays in my favor. My 1st goal in this is to get off my bp meds and level out cholesterol numbers. My next is to lose 115 lbs. I really enjoy looking at everyone's pics and reading inspiring stories. Thanks everyone for sharing ur journeys.

Wow! That's awesome! Congrats. My doc seems think it will be matter of weeks and I too will be off meds :)

      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!!
