I got so excited to post my official one year photo yesterday that I forgot to include some stats & info. So now it’s the middle of the night & I can’t sleep so- here we go! I underwent Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy surgery on October 9, 2017. I followed it up with a low carb/ keto-ish diet for 10 months before discovering intermittent fasting which has helped me lose an additional 20+ lbs since August🙌🏼 I honestly can’t believe I’m really sharing this right now. I used to troll Instagram and look at other people’s before and afters and I wanted it SO badly for myself but I don’t think I really believed I could do it. It wasn’t until I decided that I was willing to do WHATEVER it took to save my life that things began to happen. Bariatric surgery was not an easy decision. I didn’t have much support going into it. People just didn’t get it. They tried to convince me not to do it. But the more I researched it, the more I knew in my heart that it was what I needed. I had tried and failed over & over again to not only lose but maintain a healthy weight. I knew I needed some serious help. Once I decided I would go for it, there was no stopping me. I was determined. And I now wake up every single day determined. I’ve learned to love clean eating and moving my body. I’m forever grateful for my sleeve because in those times when I do fall off the wagon, the damage is minimal. VSG is the best thing I’ve ever done for myself. ✨ I want to thank my followers who have been on this journey with me since even before day 1. My account has grown & it’s sometimes hard for me to respond to every DM & comment but please know what a huge part of my journey you all have been, I’m in tears right now because I am just so grateful❤️❤️❤️ I want to help encourage as many people as I can to find the freedom I have so please let me know how I can help & any questions you may have. ❤️
