I've got my cardiac clearance for surgery. My weight is up to around 340. (tied with Andy now). Now I have to get serious about losing weight before the surgery. My last meal was olive garden. I can't believe how much my mood has changed today. This is the first day of the rest of my life. I'm so excited right now. Things are finally moving when for weeks I felt like it was never going to happen for.
Now I get a surgery date, have to pay, blood work, chest x-ray, nutrition class. It's moving and shaking. Now I need to be to get some weight off so my fatty liver goes down a notch or two.
By the way, the Dr. told me today that I am pre-diabetic. I know that losing 10% of my body weight will help with that. Now I have a goal. 10% of my extra weight is about 20 pounds. Can I do that before my surgery date? Stay tuned.
