Sometimes we need to put barriers up in front of ourselves.
The most obvious barrier to swinging by the drivethrough is lack of money.
Pack your lunch and leave your money at home. If you need to pay for parking, just bring enough cash to cover that.

@MissT_SR I had back surgery in December 2015 and I was suppose to have a second one next Tuesday, but because of the weight loss, the pressure on the sciatica nerve is a lot less, and I don't need it.
Thanks. I'm sure you'll do amazing as well.

I'm hungry all the time. I have been lucky to be able to eat solids since day 4, as per my program, but I still get hungry after like 2-4 hours, depending on what I eat. I could never go half a day without eating.
At 6 weeks I got cleared to eat everything, and first thing I tried was salty licorice (favorite). I have tried different things, some has failed (dairy based ice cream is a big no no), some, no problem.
My surgeon/NUT team state again and again that I'm no longer on a diet. I should focus on Protein, the rest is up to me. And in order to get my protein in, I'm not able to eat a ton of carbs and sugar, but I still have some. This past weekend I had sushi for the first time, a whole 5 small maki. I just made sure my protein for the rest of the day was good. I'll be 5 months out on Sunday.

Finally time for my 6 months before and after pictures.
I have lost over 90 lbs.
A week ago I completed a Nordic Walking half marathon.
I have prevented a second back surgery, and life is pretty good.
I have under 15 lbs until I have a normal BMI. I started at 42.

Awesome!!!! I'm feeling very encouraged to see this. Thank you:)

Follow the rules, for as long as you can, follow the rules 100%. It took a long time before I tried different things. I will admit I have gotten a little slack now and then at this point, but I pull myself together.
Also, move around. Walk as much as you can.
Good luck!

Well done, you!
It's not just the obvious weight loss either.
Your face/skin and posture in the 'after' photo have stripped years from you.
Superb choice. Good to hear you're out there exercising too.
