Yes, I am doing it because I don't want to die from Scoliosis related injuries to my organs. If it weren't for the condition of my spine, I probably would not get surgery and try a more natural approach to weight-loss that was gradual.
I am also aware that it is possible to gain all of the weight back and cheat. I've heard the horror stories, which is why I want to get this done right the first time around.

Yes, I've heard of the Mediterranean diet and was interested in taking it on as a regular diet for myself. I agree with you that the American diet is so processed and artificial. I like yourself have grown up on a very limited and poor diet full of salt, sugar, and oil. This is part of what is so depressing about it. I am trying to teach my taste buds to accept natural flavors which are immediately rejected because I am not used to it. I have taught myself to eat some things and am proud of myself for doing that. I guess I just need to try a little more.
I am already in counseling, so that isn't the problem. I'm really just looking for other picky eaters and people who found themselves in a similar situation to me. How did they get past their problem, etc?
I think your comment was kind of rude and assuming things. Thanks for replying though.
