83 pounds gone forever
I just got back from my PCP, I have lost 83 pounds since I started my pre-op diet! I was so shocked at the amount. I lost 22 pounds in the last month. In my mind I don't see myself looking like I have lost that much weight until I saw a picture of myself from the summer and I was surprised at the change, I think its starting to sink in. I hope to get some new pics taken and posted this weekend.
Hi Jeff,
Congratulations on your phenominal loss... and all of the gains that go with it! I can absolutely relate to not having your mind in sync with all of the physical changes that you are experiencing. I think that this happens for a combination of reasons and I encourage you to continue to take photos. They really will help you see what others are seeing. Also, if you haven't done it lately, take some measurements, you will just be amazed at yet another measure of your incredible success.
All the best,
Barbara
