I changed my mind so many times, gained another 45 lbs, developed more health issues and now I'm 3 months out. Down 71 lbs and wonder why I didn't do it sooner. It's not easy and you have to really want it but it is worth it. I can walk in stores, from parking lots and with my adult children and I feel SO much better!

I hate artificial sweetener - always have - always will. I had to stop taking the bariatric Vitamins because they upset my stomach 3 times a day. Protein shakes nauseate me and I burp them back up for hour. I just wish they would make something NOT sweet and I would eat and drink it. Can't stand that sickening sweet after taste - yuck!!

That sounds about right if you are consider that a person burns .4 to .5 calories per hour per pound just while sleeping. Do the math. This is in general - look it up. Some people have a faster or slower metabolism. Men burn more than women (of course).

@debp1953 Was wondering how you are doing now Reannabanana?
