My BMI is no longer above 50 :)

When I started looking into WLS in July of last year, I was 420 lbs. My BMI was probably 60+.

This week, still as a pre-op, I made my first goal of having a BMI under 50. I've lost 74 lbs since July, bringing me to 346 this week,  and I should be having surgery in the next couple weeks. I'm in the best shape I could be at this size - I work out every day, walk/jog, hike, play tennis, and am eating the healthiest I probably ever have. My labs are great.  I'm looking forward to having a healthier recovery because of my efforts as a pre-op.

Congrats !!!!!  I can tell you from experience that the progress you are making pre-surgery will make your surgery and post-op easier. Keep up the great work and you will be rewarded in the future.

I'm waiting for a date, but I've been told 6-8 weeks from now. I cant even imagine being at my goal weight since I've been over 200 lbs since I was in 6th grade. I am ready to get it done though since I've made strides in my life style changes.
