I had my surgery when I was 17 and I'm now 21. Having surgery before my senior year in high school wasn't the best idea.. I'll admit, my friends and I always have been partiers so all the alcohol and late night taco bell completely squashed any progress I had made. I've lost 45 lbs and gained 25 back. I'm almost 5 years post-op and feel like shit for not having made it far at all. I've forgotten everything I learned about what I should and shouldn't eat. I've been eating like I have my entire life.. I need to get on track again. My grandma needs to see me healthy before she goes to heaven... Can someone help me out?

Now that your a little older it time to get back on the wagon and stop the bad habits! change can help you in the long run and you will need to get USED to new healthy HABITS. Its takes time and you have to really want it. Only you can decide if you want to make the change. You are still young and have the chance to enjoy life to the fullest ! But in a healthy way. I am 59 and have so many health problems and WAITED till now to do something about it. I know it will be harder for me but i WILL DO IT ,,,but wished i had done it years ago. Good luck with your goals ! ....Bajagal ;)

So many people have been through this....including myself. You just have to tell yourself it's time to get back on track! Get in to see your doctor, if you need adjustment - get it. Then get back on it. You can do it. I often forget i can...then I remember, I did it before, I can do it again!
