Hello my name is Emily. I started my journey on April 1st, 2014. My starting weight was 360 pounds. My surgery was on September 15th, 2014. The week before surgery I weighed in at 314 pounds. Yesterday I went for my 2 week followup with my surgeon and I weighed in at 298 pounds. So as of today I have lossed 62 pounds. I am actually so excited to be on this journey. I know it's going to be hard at times but I love a good challenge.
