I am new on here and usually don't share myself with people, but after reading some of the blogs I found out that I am not the only one. Well I am 38 years old, and I have not had the surgery yet. I have been to my surgeon and have talked to him about everything. I have 3 more months of the diet with my PCP. I started 3 months ago at 426 lbs. After going to my third appointment with my PCP I am at 403 lbs. I was so excited. I have really had a hard time losing weight. I always thought that I was not eating big. After doing my diet with my PCP I noticed I really did eat big. I really need this tool to help me lose more weight. I have struggled with weight ever since I was 11 years old. I would lose maybe 2-5 lbs but then I would gain like double to triple that amount. With my family by my side for support I know this will work. I know it is going to be a struggle at times, but I am ready for it. I have been big for too long. My mom was bigger than me. She weighed in over 500 lbs. She is now 228 lbs. It has taken her a little bit to get there. She said without the bypass she would not have been able to lose the weight like she did. I am so proud of her. Now it is my turn to lose the weight. Thank you for listening to me.
