Thanks girl. I started off walking really slow. Did a half a mile then a mile... Now up to four miles in the evening and jog 2 miles in the morning. Tried lifting weights and just don't have the passion for it.. Go to for food. In the beginning it was rotisserie chicken because it was so moist. Now I eat every 3 hours. Baby bel lights. Light and fit Greek yogurt I still do a Protein shake in the morning.. Just don't like food in the tummy that early and just mainly protein it up date of surgery 02/21/12 surgery weight 340 lbs. current weight 146 lbs

I used to be one of those people that thought gastric bypass was cheating too and that "those" people were weak. Turns out it has saved my life.
