The best thing you can go is GET STARTED NOW! Pick a way of eating that involves foods you like and that you think you can stick with for an extended period of time that will help you reduce calories and lose weight. I chose low carb/high protein/high healthy fat (largely because that is how I knew I would have to eat post-op after the transition and healing period). I lost 99 pounds during that time before the surgery. It has made ALL the difference in the world for me. I am convinced that I have responded to the surgery and its requirements much better because I took the time to lose all the weight pre-op. (And I have lost 16 pounds in the 12 days since my surgery on top of that.)
Good luck as you continue your journey!

Not in the area anymore, but grew up in New Castle, to the west of Pittsburgh. Huge Steelers/Penguins/Pirates fan and just thought I'd drop in and say hi, welcome, and best of luck!

It's bad to say this but I would eat my way to a BMI of 40, you're so close
