I am pre op and this is what scares me the most. I am so afraid of doing all the work and then in a year or two I fall back into my old bad habits. Since I'm not experienced enough in this I can't offer any advice personallly but I have read that it is best to stop it at 10lbs before it gets worse and harder to lose. I wish you the best and just try to remember the feelings you had before your surgery and what made you want it so bad.
