Hi Everyone -Like most of you, I have struggled with my weight for my entire life. I have been as tiny as 119 lbs and as big as 315 lbs and I can no longer take the diets and fads that do not work long-term for me. I've done Optifast and lost 50 pounds, but that for me was a false hope since I never really learned how to eat well and that is the key.I've been asked by my surgeon to lose 20lbs before surgery and i've lost 23 so far and have another 3 weeks to go before my surgery on June 30th, 2010.I'm struggling with the emotions of anxiety regarding the surgery and recovery and really hope that all goes well. I would love to chat with others who have been through the process and also others who are on the same track as I am.
