My Highest Weight: 244+
Pre-Op Weight: 222.7
Day of Surgery: 215.2
Today: 212.8
That means just under 10 pounds (FOREVER) gone since starting my pre op diet eleven days ago. I did keep what I thought to be immaculate notes while at the hospital, but upon my return I see that

I had my surgery this morning and have been in and out the last two hours, but now I'm feeling dang good! No pain, nausea, or anything. I'm getting ready to go walk around the OR because I'm already stir crazy in this bed. I can already tell that this was the best decision I have ever made for myself! Thank you all for your support and friendship!
