theby_88 72 Posted February 19, 2013 Haven't done a post in awhile so I thougt I would update you all that care, LOL. I am officially 4 months out from surgery and down 81 pounds. I feel great and am so happy I did this surgery so far. There are many things I have to fight in order to stay on track and push myself to workout, just like before surgery, but I fight it all the time. I am learning more and more everyday how much this surgery is just a TOOL and not an answer. Yes it helps you lose more weight than you would on your own, but only if you are staying on track with eating right, getting in all your Protein and exercising. If you don't do what you are suppose to do you are NOT going to lose very good or fast. That would be my one piece of advice. RELIZE it's just a TOOL not an answer. 1 newlife4leah reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
