As you can see from my comments below, this isn't the first time I've tried to lose weight. Always successful, to a point. I can remember as a child the doctor telling my mom I should lose 20 lbs. I'm sure I'm not alone in people who want to go back to those days! :)
So this year I took a step and emailed my doctor about the possibility of bariatric surgery. The next thing I know things are moving along and I'm seeing light at the end of a fat tunnel! I went to orientation, met my surgeon and was very close to going to weigh in when the COVID thing hit. Now i'm on my third week of being furloughed from work and staying home. I won't lie, I've been super bummed. I have gained weight, going to bed late, waking up late and have no desire to walk around. I had no idea that in my every day life of just going to work I would get around 5000 steps in a day. It's 1:30 pm and I have 873. This isn't the legacy of time off that I want to leave. I decided I'm going to baby step my way to success. What are the things we need to do before/after surgery:
I'm not saying this is going to be the solution or anything. I'm just saying maybe it could. :)
