116 lb transformation


So here we are DURING the transformation.  I am excited that there is this HUGE, apparent, difference from August 2017 to now January 2019.  I can't wait to see the transformation that happens in the next 1.5 years.  I have eyes, I have a chin, I have a beck, I have HEALTH!  

I am one day away from progressing to Food Stage 3 since VSG.  This means adding in deli meat, tuna, chicken, and really soft veggies.  I did try ham last night and it went just fine.  I tried chicken franks today in some beans for protein and it went fine so I am looking forward to eating more normal.  It is scary to try new foods because maybe it won't agree with my stomach but I want to be able to eat dinners with my family (although it will only be 2-3 oz haha). Pork and beef are off limits for now and I am OK with that.  I made a calendar with our meals for the next month and on it is scallops, cauliflower rice, zucchini, shrimp stir fry, ricotta bake with turkey meatballs, spaghetti squash taco bowls, veggies noodles, buffalo chicken wonton cups, shrimp and kielbasa sheet pan, BRUSSEL SPROUTS FINALLY!!!!!!  Cauliflower gnocchi, fish, broccoli tot nachos, ground turkey spaghetti with zoodles, veggies noodles, where's the crust pizza, low carb chili dog bake, tuna cakes, cream chicken enchilada skillet, cabbage and kielbasa, shrimp Taco Bell, coconut shrimp, and other yummy stuff.  SOME DAY SOON, I will be going to Red Lobster to get me some crab legs YUUUUMMMM.  I really plan to eat healthy like I did before surgery and one of my big goals is to find meals that my entire family loves that maybe isn't so healthy, and do a healthy version of it.  

Week 1= -10
Week 2= -3
Week 3= -3
Week 4= -5

Measurements will be taken tomorrow and updated soon!

3 months + 2 days

I GOT A SURGERY DATE!  December 27, 2018 at 8am I will be having VSG ( Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy).  SO, on December 6th, I have to get labs, chest X-ray, and an EKG to ensure I am in top notch health.  I also get to talk to the doctor that day just to go over everything for like the 3rd time and I say that in the best way possible.  Nothing makes me feel better than getting as much one on one time with the man who will be doing the surgery and making sure all my questions are answered.  THEN, I have to be at the hospital at 6am on the 27th and the surgery will begin at 8am; it will last around one hour.  I have to stay in the hospital that night and then I should be able to break out the next day.  I can't drive for one week and I can't lift over 10 pounds for two weeks........EVIE!!! :(  I CANNOT wait to be blessed with this tool that will not only HELP me shed the rest of my weight but HELP me keep it off.  I still have to ...
