Well, I made it! For those who have not read my previous post I started this journey at 269 lbs and have tried many things to control my weight, some worked not for long but nothing stuck. I had four months of nutritionist appointments. I was required to do a psych evaluation due to my young age, as well as lab work and the usual. I started my pre op diet Jan 14th but I have made the neccesary changes to my eating habits before then.

I am now a whopping 239 as of today, lost two sizes in jeans, and all before my surgery. It has been hard, and I've learned a lot about myself. I thought I was confident before, I never knew how much my weight truly limited me in what I could do, I never thought I was an emotional eater.

All these things are challenges. It's just a wall I had to break down to get past, and I can proudly say I have thus far and I'm not tired yet.

Tomorrow morning at 9:30 all my hard work will be paid off and I will be recieving the lap band procedure. Wish me luck! I'll keep you updated!

If any pre oppers and people interested in lap band have any questions I will gladly assist. Also message me for support if you need it to help you get to that surgery date!

Good luck tomorrow! Just a suggestion - you should also post this is the Lap-Band Forum for pre-oppers (Lap-Band) that may have questions.

It is cooooold! Thankfully we are high 20s low 30s and the sun finally came out. I live north of Houston. So the sweeping arctic blast actually last minute swept to the east. Thankfully! Not as much ice as predicted but It tried!

And I'm not used to this, I'm used to the deadly summer weather haha

      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!!
