Celebrating 100 Pre-Op!

  • Popular Post

Greetings,

Going to celebrate out loud today! I have lost 100 lbs from my July 2021 highest recorded weight and all in PRE op!!! 85.8 Lbs in 2022!

Damn, this has been hard. A lot of emotional and behavioral change went into this effort. A lot of re-education about nutrition and choices. A lot of forgiving myself for getting to this weight. A lot of healing. A lot of journaling. A lot of reminding myself that I am worth taking care of.

It also has been easier than I thought. Once I gained the confidence that I could, I did. Yes, I have had doctor support and taking Ryselbus helped, but mostly this is me making true and long lasting change. I am comforted by the fact that if for some reason I could not have the sleeve surgery on November 3rd, 2022, I would still loose weight and feel better and my LIFE would be better.

Everyone has this in them. Its a tough road, but we can all achieve better in our lives.

good goal to have for you!!!!! :) hope you can reach it as easy as possible

i got a long road ahead of me - i would love to loose about 160 more to be under 200… some days i think that’s waaay too low after how far i was… sometimes i think “aim for the stars, ya never know what might happen;)”

You've already come such a long way. You'll make it. :) You're going to surpass your current goal. Buy yourself a size 8 or 10 pair of jeans, because you're going to be wearing them one day - if not a size 6. :)
