So i was suppose to get my surgery date june 18th but my insurance came back and said i need six months of consecative visits, which mad me very mad and upset but then got a call and said i only need at least 2-3 more visits and i should be fine! So i went in july 31st and ended up gaining 4lbs last time i seen the surgeon, my fault so i have until August 27th to lose that 4lbs plus more! i am still in that 5% range tho, but what i want from you is ur recipes of ur favorite healthy food u like!
