    VSG Surgery Date Announcement & Pre-Op Diet (Video)

    02/05/2017 /

      February 8th, 2017. 3 days. Holy cow! I’m having my Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy (VSG) surgery on Wednesday, and I’m like…freaking out. Not in a bad way, but in a kid on Christmas Eve way.

I hope you enjoy the updates, but I…

    My Decision for Weight Loss Surgery (Video)

    01/20/2017 /

      This video is the first of many I will be doing regarding my weight loss surgery. Watching other peoples’ videos has been an invaluable tool for me leading up to the decision and keeping myself excited and in the know during the long process that is waiting for the actual surgery. I know that I want to give back and provide people with my story and my opinions in hopes that I can help them make a decision one way or the other regarding WLS. Another huge reason for doing the videos is a pretty selfish one: I want to see my results! Photos can tell a lot, sure…but…

    Creating an At Home Gym with Friends!

    01/13/2017 /

      While working out wasn’t a resolution for me this year, I have banned together with some of my favorite people to peer pressure each other into working out. We have done some pretty cool things to make this happen, so I thought I would share with you so you can rope your friends into being your workout buddies, trainers, DJs, motivational speakers, and even more like I have! Check out 4 of the driving factors to creating our co-op home gym below!   GROUP TEXTS     With us all in one text group, there can’t be any secrecy. (For the most part…) We can use the group messaging to…
