390 to 180

390 to 180

390 is the heaviest I've ever been. Or am ever going to be. It's what I weighed in at on Monday, October 31, 2011 at Mayo clinic in Rochester at the first of my appointments in the process of pursuing gastric bypass surgery. Part of that process is making life changes to support what my will be going through after surgery. I'm going to be living healthier from now on, losing some weight, and by the time the surgery comes around, maybe I won't need it after all. Maybe I will. I hope to gain some support from the Tumblr community as I track my weight loss, my food intake, and my exercise. Follow me, and I'll follow back. :)

My stats:
Age: 30
Married (sorry ladies)
3 kids
Starting Weight: 390
Current Weight: 359.0
Next Goal Weight: 350
Ultimate Goal Weight: 180

Anonymous asked: Hey man, where ya been? I really like your blog and I've been re-reading your archives because you haven't posted in a while. Very inspiring stuff. Hope you're doing well and that we can all hear from you again soon.

And here I didn’t think anyone was paying attention, or cared. This is just, wow. Please message me again so I properly thank you.

As for where I’ve been, I’ve been just here. I haven’t been exercising regularly, or eating proper. I’ve gained again. I’ve restarted the process of working towards gastric bypass. I’ve been pretty depressed. I haven’t given up on achieving my weight loss goals, just completely stalled out. I’ll try to start posting again. Starting with the results from the work out I’m going to attempt right now, thanks to you, anon. Please don’t stay anon!

AAAAaaaannnnd I’m back

Hello everyone. If you can see this, thank you for not unfollowing while I’ve been totally off track. I lost some serious motivation since the holidays, but I’m feeling that internal change or spark I felt when I first started this journey come back. So, to update everyone here’s the stats:

Starting weight: 390

Current weight: 362 (I haven’t gained since losing my steam, which I think has been bad for me. If I had been suffering consequences of my inaction, perhaps I’d have been more motivated to start up again.)

Breakfast this morning: Fruit/protein smoothie. (I’m thinking of doing a 3-day juice fast to clean my system. Thoughts?)
