Today is my first full day home. I am crushing pills as I go. I am just trying to get the hang of enough water and enough protein shake. Yikes! It is going to take me two weeks to figure this out.

Good information. I have a chronic health condition that requires 14 pills per day. I need to ask about this ahead of time. Echo

I am not at 30-31. My BMI is at 33-ish. I started at just over 250 back in February. I am at 196. My surgery date is 12/2. My goal weight is 145. I had my lap band removed on 6/8/20. Things have been slow but steady. That is what I am expecting after surgery. I am hoping for added help from the surgery in maintaining my weight loss. I am not a heavy exercise person. I barely get my 150 minutes per week. I just want to have a healthy balanced lifestyle. Thanks for sharing all your inspirational stories, Echo
