Happy Tuesday Everyone!
I am taking a break from my Diet-Friendly Father's day meals this week to bring you my month 3 weigh in update!
Every month I visit the nutritionist that is overseeing my pre-op weight loss for 6 months, as is required by my insurance company before I can have the Gastric Sleeve surgery. I have really started to notice a huge difference not only in my face, but in my body as well. Clothes that were once too tight fit loosely now, and I have an easier time moving around.
The weigh in this morning told me one thing. To date I have lost 30 pounds, currently weighing in at 362.2 pounds. This puts me very close to the weight that I was before I moved to Alaska over 3 years ago. I gained 10 pounds a year, which doesn't seem like a lot, but when you think of the fact that it's 30 pounds in 3 years, it is a lot. That's how I gained all of my weight. 5 pounds here, 10 pounds there, all slowly and over my entire life, until it spiraled out of control.
I have 3 months of Pre-Op dietary requirements left, and then I can schedule my surgery in September. I get so excited thinking about the future, and all of the things I am going to be able to do once I am healthy. I can go hiking, I can ride a bike, I can be comfortable in my own skin.
Tonight I am going to a movie with a friend, so I can celebrate with a small popcorn.
Have a great day everyone!
