One month ago today I had my band to sleeve revision!! This morning I weighed in at 200.0 lbs!! So close to onederland. I am only 6 lbs from my lowest with the band and 55 lbs to goal!! If you had asked me the first week if I was happy with my decision I don't know that I would have said yes. But today I can without a doubt YES!!! I am still on soft foods till the 17th but have totally changed the way I look at food. Label reading has become habit and before I eat anything I review what I have already eaten on MFP to make sure I have the calories or carbs to spare. I have been able to wear clothes that I had to move to the back of my closet because they were too tight. Giving up some of my favorite foods had been REALLY hard but keeping my eye on the prize has made it so worth it.
