December 6, 20169 yr Popular Post Here's my "before" photo. I'm 428 lbs. Starting my pre-op diet. I'm giving up Coca-cola, smoking and most carbs. Trying to lose 25-40lbs before surgery.

December 6, 20169 yr Good for you! It definitely isn't easy putting up pictures for the whole world to see. The good news is that every picture after will be a bit harder to see because you will be smaller and smaller!

Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App It really is. Between the two. I'm still having some carbs just not complex carbs like Pasta, bread, rice, etc. But some veggies have carbs. Just trying to be low on the carb scale. I think yesterday all day I had 25 carbs. I would hate to think what my carb number was even a week ago Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App
