In part two of Chris and Nicole Russell's bariatric journey, the couple is excited to share how their lives have changed in the best ways. Gone are the days of ordering big meals — they’ve started cooking at home, saving money and focusing on healthier choices together. Chris had surgery on Aug. 28, and Nicole's procedure took place on Sept. 6.
"It hasn’t always been easy, but we’ve learned so much, like the importance of prepping before surgery and adjusting to new habits, like not drinking with meals," Nicole said.
Chris and Nicole hold each other accountable and stay active. Chris said, "Every little change is bringing us closer to a healthier, happier future."
