Hey everyone! I posted in another section before I realized this one made more sense, so I'll post a little more in-depth here! I started my weight loss journey a long time ago but the insurance company denied me for about a year. It was a struggle and really disheartening, but I was finally approved and had a surgery date in mid December. I guess it's been around 9 months now and I feel fabulous. You lose a whole lot in the beginning then it slows. One thing I will say is it is very hard to get in all the nutritional necessities. I felt sluggish even though I looked better. I did some searching around because I didn't want to be on supplements or pills or anything but I also knew there was no way for me to get in all my fruits, vegetables, ect. I finally found a product that is simply powdered fruits, veggies, and berries. Like eating all those fruits and veggies and getting the nutrition from it but not actually eating the whole fruits. Make sense? Literally considered a food product. It's got all my servings that I need in a day in just a capsule or a shake mix. It has tons of clinical research that's been done on it too. It helped with my skin, my energy, but most importantly I actually get in all my fruits and vegetables. Anyway. That's been my journey so far. I live a life full of happiness with an energy I cannot even explain. I'm so happy and so full of life thanks to the weight loss surgery. It's an adjustment, but I mean that in the greatest way. One of the best decisions I've ever made in my life.

Oh wow!! That is great! I am so afraid of the loss of energy as I have had this happen on carb restricted diets..please tell me the name of those pills....& I do hope this isn't someone marketing a product....my apologies if u r the real deal, but I have been hurt before with things that have turned out to be just ads

Thank you! (:

You look great! How's your skin?
