2012 - I had Vertical Sleeve Gastric Surgery in October 2012, and this is my journey to push the fat girl aside and start living life without fear of lawn chairs, the middle seat, clothing shops and high heels. Among other things.

2017 - I'm preop for the Duodenal Switch procedure for my sleeve to help me get to goal weight....and to fix another hiatal hernia.

Constant Vigilance

Well - the end of the year is coming to a close. I was looking on my calendar at the office and noticed that I had "258" in there for Jan 1.

I'm so close!!   :)  

I've been really bad with water again.  I can really feel it when I wake up in the mornings... mouth so dry!!   So I need to get on top of that again.   Constant Vigilance!!  Always be sipping!



I like to slip in as much "nerd" as possible into my posts! haha

So I've been snacking lots, and doing no food tracking. I think that is the main reason for my last few week of stalled weight loss.  That, and the lack of water and exercise.  

Its about come to the time... my body has shed off the first massive push of fat. Now I'm more functional, happier and the weight loss has leveled out.  Time to get serious again about tracking and monitoring myself to get another 40 off by the end of the summer. I'm aiming for losing 5 - 10lbs a month.  This month its going to be closer to 5 then 10.

Weigh In today: 259.8
