I had a lower BMI too. At 5'6 I had about 6o lbs to lose to get to my pre-baby size 4. I had surgery on Nov 23 and have lost a little over 35 lbs in three months. It has been easy and I feel great. Actually, I have been wanting to start exercising but have not even done that yet!
As far as eating, I just eat normal food and try to make healthier choices but I am not doing low carb or super high Protein, just making sure I eat veggies and whole grains and lean meats. If I want a cookie or chocolate I have some and am satisfied with a small amount.
I think you would love it and not have any problem losing weight.

oh goodie! I was just going to go on a search for the much mentioned ricotta bake. Thanks Angel. The dessert looks good too. Of course everything in the world looks and sounds good to me right now. The idea of chewing something is just so extraordinary. Meanwhile, I really miss being able to drink Water in gulps. That may sound strange but I just love water and I cant seem to get enough this way and am feeling thirsty even though I am sure I am getting a total of at least 50-60 ounces of liquid a day. I think I am taking small sips but I get the same pain you described right between the sha shans and then feel like I have to burp. any ideas? THank you!
