What makes you so special?

I have admitted that I am Fat...then I blog about how to lose weight.  I tell you I am definitely going to have bariactric surgery, then I go on about what to eat.  Hmmmm...seems kinda crazy right?

Well, if you are thinking of having some kind of surgery, know you will have to spend 6 months to a year proving you are eligible and worthy.  It doesn't matter if you have a BMI of 50 or not.  You still have to go through  the drill.  And it has to be monitored.  So if you think you are ready to start the process, then go see a surgeon and start the process.  You will have to prove you are dieting and exercising.  You will go to the doctors monthly and be questioned and poked.  Then the actually process starts with psychologists and tests and more monitoring.

So start now.  Go see the surgeon.

I am 7 months into this journey.  I started off at about 300 pounds. I am down to 240.  I still have 100 pounds to go.  Amazing huh?  But is this all talk?  Am I just full of myself?

Here are some pictures of me before I got mad

That is my lovely husband and me last February.  How many chins to you see?  3 - 4?  I was super heavy then.  I just didn't care.

And another  from the Fall before that.

And here I am today.  In my office with my sweet dog.  I have started my journey but have a long way to go.
