What a difference 6 months makes

So last year at this time I was meeting with my PCP to talk about options. I had another trip to the ER thanks to my asthma and allergies. After the meeting, set up my first appointment with the surgeon.

Needed to wait the 6 months and lose weight. I was glad for this requirement and I think it has helped me in my success.

Now here I am 1 year from my surgeon meeting and 6 months from my surgery. Down a total of 108.5 pounds as of this morning. Not at goal but getting closer each day/ week.

I do not regret my decision and know its going to get easier. The first 6 months have been hard, but I would not change it for anything. I have never felt better in my life. "Nothing tastes as good as thin feels"
