This is Me.

This is the story of my Weight Loss Surgery, namely the Vertical Gastric Sleeve. When I started this journey, I really wanted someone to tell me exactly what to expect, what to eat, what to do, etc, so I decided to chronicle my OWN journey.....to be able to look back on it, but also to possibly help someone else about to start theirs.

April 2016 - Update!

Today's Weight - 198.0

That's right....UNDER 200 pounds for the first time in at least 25 years, but probably longer. I don't even remember what I weighed in high school, but I'm pretty sure it was close to 200. I've lost almost 100 pounds and I feel amazing! It's still a shock to me when I get to shop in the "Regular" size clothes vs. "Plus" size. And I've developed a bit of a shopping habit....it's so exciting to buy clothes that fit!

Having this surgery almost 3 years ago is the best thing I've ever done for myself. I sometimes get "the look" when I tell people, but I have realized I don't care! It worked for me, so whatever. Life is too short to worry what other people think about you.
