Hi everyone! I tried to start my journey in 2014, went to surgeon seminars, some nutrition appts. But I just wasn't ready. I needed to be emotionally/mentally prepared.
On February 28th of this year I weighed 350 lbs, on a 5'8" frame. This is the heaviest I have ever been. That's when I contacted another surgeon's office. So far, I've had my first nutrition appt, psych eval completed and approved!, And I was told I would have 3 more nutrition appts, last one being 6/29. Surgery could be as early as July!
As soon as I saw 350 on the scale (BMI 51), I made some nutritional changes. As of yesterday, I am now 314.8. I'll still be eligible for surgery, just want to be the healthiest I can for surgery.
Looking forward to meeting you all
