i'm jumping on the band wagon with you! i have the working out down pat, it's the making better food choices and getting my water in that's a challenge. even though i'm 4 months out i think my mind is still mad about that pre-op liquid diet and doesnt wanna drink liquids anymore! LOL but i've got to do better

LMBO...i do know what ya mean. It sure isn't easy but together we will do better!

It concerns me when people say they are cutting down on food. Its been over a year for me and after 10 months of listening to bariatric surgeons, I finally went to an x-bodybuilder for nutrition and training. Boy, did I learn what I was doing wrong. DONT cut down on food! You need to eat or you will lose your muscle. Key is - eating only clean food- often! After I incorporated this into my life the fat started melting off slowly. Before that, I was killing myself at the gym and eating 900 cals or less..... with little weight loss and certainly no fat loss. I was losing lean muclse because I wasnt eating enough. Please do some research on what Im saying. Truly, this info will help you in the long run!
