I am so excited! little nervous but happy. My starting weight is 289 as of this day. I will start my 2 week liquid diet before surgery on August 18th. That's all for now!

Well its been a while but surgery went very well. More pain than I expected after surgery. I am now starting to feel like myself more every day. I have started incorparting more food in my diet daily, some days are good with this and some are bad, but just have to keep trying. I am almost 1 month out and have lost 24 pounds already. My next doctor's appt. is October 8th and I will update again!
