5 months to go!

[LisaOle 20]

Hello everyone, I am on my 6 month journey to get the gastric bypass ( at least that's the one I want) I've seen my dietician , physical therapist, and counselor for a month now so ( more to go. My biggest challenge is the amount of weight I have to loose. I was 292 when my doc submitted my paperwork to insurance so that is the weight they go by..... But..... I then quit smoking and my weight shot up to 317 but they are going by 5% of my body weight of submitted paperwork!! I'm currently 298 almost back to prior quit smoking still have like 22 pounds to go.

My doctor gave me Zyban to quit, hope I spelt that right. Anyway I took it for a month each week cutting my amount I would smoke a day starting with week one 20 a day week two was 15 a day and so on... I had gym through the house and car and walk when it got bad. Still gained weight but I made it. Oh and my favorite app for tracking calories fat carbs ect.. Is mynetdiary love it keeps me on track my NUT was impressed with it.
