RTD

I have struggled with weight loss and food addiction my entire life . I tried every diet including Atkins and "E-Diets." As my weight approached 300lbs, I found everyday activities more and more difficult. Three years ago, I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and this threw me over the edge to take the drastic step of surgery. Currently, I am a science teacher, a very stressful job and food has been my main way of dealing with all my stress. Although I have lost 45 pounds, I am struggling with the post-op liquid diet and sometimes wonder if this was all worth the effort. If I knew in advance how difficult this process would be, I wonder if I would have forced myself to follow the Ornish diet or taken much more seriously my approach to weight loss!
