Thank you @@Kindle for the share. I lost weight (75lbs) about 10 years ago and was able to keep it off for 6 years , until I got pregnant with my son. I have always tried to eat right. Surprisingly, my problem isn't junk food, donuts, chips, or anything like that. It's more portion control. My appetite increased when I got pregnant and it never stopped increasing. I never felt full. I don't know what lies ahead but I appreciate all information from all perspectives. I don't want to go into this not being as prepared as I can be with my expectations. At this point, I've been trying the 1200 calorie diet, it's just not working anymore:( I'm praying this surgery will get me to where I was and I will maintain from there.

Congratulations!!

Thanks ladies! I joined WW to see of that will help me. Fingers crossed! I was told that they use my BMI from my initial visit no matter how much weight I lose during this 6 months

I'm in my 6 month supervised time in order to qualify. Curious about how much people lost during this time. I've lost 2 lbs . I mean the reason why I decided on this surgery was cause I wasn't able to lose weight on my own anymore. I've battled obesity my entire life. Going up and down. Losing them gaining. These past 2 years.. I can't lose anymore. It's like my body shut down.
