Almost one year out
I weighed in at 171.5 this morning, my goal being 170. My surgery was Feb 6th, 2013, I can't believe how far I have come in such a short time! This time last year I was facing my first weekend on opti (I did 3 weeks), wondering if I could do it, the first 3 days are rough I will not sugar coat it BUT the opti really is the test (for me anyway) I knew if I could stick to it then I could stick to the guidelines we are given post-surgery.
For those starting their journey with the referral or first appointments or Opti, enjoy the journey it won't always be easy but it will be worth it!
Congrat on your weight lost.....AMAZING WORK! And thank you so much for the encouraging words
