Who said no?

If you read my last post, you would know that I submitted a claim to my insurance company for them to cover a Panniculectomy, and they had denied it. WELLS I am thrilled to share that they ACCEPTED my appeal and I will be having surgery on Feb 29th. This again ties into the thought that the Lord has perfect timing. I had peace that this surgery would be covered, I just didn't know when. 
 
And just for good measure, the photo on the left was taken in October, when I was four months post op. The photo on the right was taken this morning, and I am eight months postop. I am still right around 276 pounds. I feel comfortable with that because I know that I'm gaining muscle from working out consistently.
Love Y'all big!

One year already?!

Can you even believe it?! I cannot. June 5th was officially one year since I underwent VGS (vertical sleeve gastrectomy). It was surely life changing. By now I hope that you all understand the HUGE MASSIVE GIANT role that you played in my surgery. I am forever thankful. This post is going to list some things that have changed since surgery, some of which you may not understand, if you have never been over weight... and a lot of photos. 1. My highest documented weight was 364lbs, I currently weigh 250lbs. 2. I wore a 4x or 26/28 prior to surgery, I currently wear 1x, xl (which are NOT the same) and 14/16/18 pants... brands y'all. 3. My ring size went from a 10 to a 7. 4. Bra band size went from 46 to 38/40. 5. I am rocking a 2 piece at the pool! 6. My feet are smaller, maybe 1/2 size. 7. I have collar bones! (Say what) 8. I can easily shave my whole leg. 9. I have the ability to paint my  own toes and not pass out. 10. I can go into almost any "normal size" sto...

Why has it been so long?

It's been quite some time since my last post. I'll try to give a "quick" update, but can we be real... I don't know how to do short and sweet. I am long winded. In no particular order, here are some things that have been going on: 1. My thyroid is a complete jerk. Really. Every single time I go in for blood work, it's worse and we increase the medicine. I have started also seeing a natural healing doctor, in addition to my primary physician. It can't hurt. There is a website that I can recently found that has helped me feel not alone with my health issues,  I have added links for you to read, if you wish.  https://themighty.com/2017/02/what-people-get-wrong-about-hypothyroidism/ 2. Due to above mentioned jerk, my weight loss has halted and I have gained about 30lbs in the past 6 months. I work on it every day. Some days are better than others. 3. I did complete my masters degree! (insert me dancing) Now I have about a 2 year process of supervision be...
