Hello! I’m Simone and I’m 24 years old. Just like the majority of everyone else, I tried every diet under the sun. I loss 30 pounds by myself & gained it all back plus more. Last year I tried the Keto diet, loss 10 pounds my first month and gained it all back plus more as well. It gets discouraging to lose weight and gain it all back.
I recently started my journey to VSG. 5-28 I had my first consultation with the surgeon at Mt. Sinai in NYC. So far, I have everything scheduled that I needed to schedule myself. The only thing that isn’t scheduled is the sleep study which they’ll call me for. I’m pretty excited for this journey & my new lifestyle that’s to come. I also have to lose 15 pounds by July 30th (when I see my surgeon again). I’m currently down 3.7lbs from June 1st. Today I have my Cardiology Clearance. It had to get rescheduled from yesterday due to them scheduling me on a day the cardiologist doesn’t come in. It was pretty annoying having to go all the way there just to find that out. But it is what it is.
I’ve been using Instagram to post my journey so if anyone wants to follow each other, leave a comment with you IG username or you can follow me @CurlyGirl_GetsFit .
