Go ahead with the surgery. It will be the best decision you make of your life. I couldn't be happier . I'm still in shock I'm this thin. I own 2 preschools and I only stayed home 4 days. I stayed in my office the 1st week back and the second week I was in classrooms but not lifting . I walked a lot and that helped. The vitamins become a part of everyday and your body will crave meat. I didn't eat meat for 20 years and my body craves it know. It's strange but it's like my body knew it needed it. -

The key to being successful is drinking 64 oz water, taking your vitamins, tracking your food, and eating at least 70 grams protein daily. If you have an I phone download my net diary and log your food daily. Eat your protein first. Stay away from bread pasta and rice which were my favorites. Plan your meals so there is no room for era. I drink crystal light they have so many flavors you won't get tired of water. Good luck and remember when you can walk into any store and fit into size 12 it will all be worth it. I still have 42 more pounds until my goal weight but I will get there. -

I've had my ups and downs and I've had some stalls and I've cheated a little but stay focused. Planning and eating protein and tracking your food is a huge part of being successful. If you have an I phone download my net diary and track every food you eat. Drink at least 64 oz water and take your vitamins. -
