Pre-Op Weight Loss

Hello everyone,

This is my first post. I'm currently in the process of losing the weight I need before getting surgery.

I need to lose 24lbs so far I've lost 6....my only problem is I keep wanting to eat things that I shouldn't. I know it sounds horrible but I want to eat things before I can't. Don't get me wrong I want/need this surgery! But I can't stop nibbling on random stuff, like brownies, muffins etc. I have a sweet tooth.

Anyhoo, what did all y'all do to overcome this. I have been trying to not nibble on things but it hasn't been happening.

I need to just buckle down and get this done.

Thanks everyone for the support y'all! :)
