What's your diet like? You could adopt my surgeon's pre-op diet. 30gms of carbs or less a day. The weight will come off. The first few days are not pleasant, but after that, it gets to be pretty easy and then you don't even really feel hungry. I was skeptical at first, b/c they told us to eat full-fat mayo, full-fat everything, but I figured they'd been in business for 17 years, had 5000 cases with little issue, so I gave it a try. It does work, and will work for you. I've dropped from 345 a week and a half ago to 333 today.
