Hi, looking for friends! Future VSG girl here!

Options
Hey guys, my name is Brandi and I'm 28 living in the Bay Area. I currently weigh 337lbs, and I am actively trying to lose weight. Right now I am tracking my macros, and following IIFYM.

I am planning to get gastric sleeve surgery to gain a tool to help me lose, and maintain my weight. I've struggled for years, and I need a little bit of help! In the meantime, as it is a 6-8 month approval process, I am going to be working as hard as I can to develop healthy habits, and become more active.

I would love to have some friends for motivation! Looking forward to connecting with people :smile:

    I am also planning to get vsg. Scheduled surgery date is 08/30/17. I am hoping to try to lose some weight before surgery as I've heard it is less complicated that way and I am 5'5 and 337lbs.
