Green Shirt Picture

Hi, Everyone:

 

Today is November 1st and I just took my monthly green shirt photo. I can't believe the changes in how I look and feel. It has been just a little over 4 months and I am down 46 lbs, plus the 14lbs I lost prior to the actual surgery. That is 60lbs folks. I believe someone told me today that 60lbs is about the weight of a 2 year old child.

 

This surgery has saved my life in more ways than one. Besides feeling amazing, I am so much happier. I can do things now that I haven't been able to do in years like tie my own shoes, cross my legs and walk up a flight of stairs. I am sleeping so much better and I can actually see my feet!

 

For anyone who is thinking about having this surgery, don't walk - run to the nearest surgeon and get it done.

 

I will have my pictures posted by the end of the week so look for them.

 

All I can say is I hope each and everyone of you who read this blog are feeling as good as I am.

I always look forward to your green shirt pictures :cursing: They give me hope that as we lose it really is noticeable. Wow 60 lbs. in 4 mths. is a lot! I'd be over the moon & I bet you are too.

I so agree with everything u said. I am 52 and retired. I was banded about 3 yrs. ago. This yr. has been amazing for me. I did the Avon Breast Cancer Walk (me can't believe it). My Cousin and Daughter wanted to do the walk and I said No there is no way I can walk 40 miles. But my daughter kept on me saying that I could that all I needed to do was try. well I didnt do the whole 40 but I did do 26 miles AMAZING. I LOVE my life wish I would have done it sooner.
