GOAL #1 and Cha Cha Changes

So today I am at 420 my goal weight for surgery. YAY! However, I will not be having surgery. After talking with my Hematologist I believe it's too risky for me to under go any surgery. I have a clotting disorder that has already caused me one pulmonary embolism....1 out of 3 pulmonary embolisms are fatal....so if surgery was to cause me another PE what are the chances of survival??? Not very good.

I cried about it a first then I realized the person who commented on my last blog was right....I can do this on my own....in fact I have been.... I started at 465 and now one month later I am at 420...45 pounds in one month is't too shabby! I CAN DO THIS!!!

that totally changes the focus of my blog...lol but I hope you will continue with me on my journey through losing weight without VSG.
