Pre Op Triumph-Determination

So quick update I just left my final NUT visit and my starting weight at the beginning of my program in May was 258. I gained 6 pounds by my August visit and they warned me that I needed to be under 258 by today's appt, because I have Aetna insurance and they wont approve me if I have a net gain. I followed through with my portion control and forced my way to the gym. Today's weigh in I am 254.5 pounds.

So even if you do have mishaps and gain during your pre-op period just get back on track. Think about why you are doing this, and who you are doing this for. Maybe for yourself, your family, your future bikini ;) . But make it up in your mind to stay focused no matter what the scale may say. We may get down but we are never defeated. I am proud of each and everyone of you guys.

WOOOHHH HOOO Next Stop Pre Surgery
