SteveFrett 155 Posted November 3, 2012 Don't adjust your screen, you read this correctly, I was banded in 2006 and have successfully lost, and kept off 170 lbs....and outside of the liquid diet, I discovered a way to still enjoy the same exact foods that got me to enormous proportions, and shed the exta me... I'm more then happy to take anyone who honestly knows eating "Healthy " isn't parts of your vocabulary, as a pupil, mentee, minion, you get the idea, be warned, I'm without a doubt, a few sammiches shy of a picnic, a few volts dim of a watt, in laymen terms, Crazy! So if your curious, serious, and want a Fun mentor, look no further... you have been forewarned! 6 Banjo257, hmendoza, 123crod and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2012 359 Posted November 3, 2012 Yes definitely, I think you are funny and straight up, so that would be great if you have any wisdom you can share! I think the eating part is okay for me, just need to work on the veggies and fruits more as sticking to under 60 carbs a day puts those a little out of reach since they are pretty high except for a few exceptions (love asparagus and raw spinach). And if you have any tricks to get my lazy a** off this couch, that would be nice, lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lisa0203 73 Posted November 4, 2012 NY here too! Would definitely love to hear your secrets to success! My nutritionist and I are on the same page...diets don't work. Skinny people are skinny because they know when to stop! Will not be counting carbs, calories, sugars, etc. Had surgery 10/11/12 and feeling fantastic so far. Drives me nuts on here to read "you can't eat this, don't eat that"...didn't get fat eating "A" cheeseburger. Got fat eating a double quarter pounder and a large fries washed down with a chocolate shake!!!! 2 Iruthie20 and Banjo257 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
