    No secrete....haha I've just done very low carb from the beginning. I think the main thing is you have to find what works best for you and the important thing is to stick to it......Good luck!!

    Thank you everyone for all the sweet comments! It really does feel awesome. I met my goal weight in late December so I just completed my first full month of maintenance and it went great! I remained just under my goal all month..........I am determined to stay on top of this! I was not a very happy fat person. I not only felt bad because of the physical pain the extra weight caused but really hated how I looked.....getting dressed to go out somewhere was terrible and I always prayed I wouldn't see anyone I knew.....haha I guess that's why I decided to have most of my stomach removed.

    I feel so much healthier and happier!!! Thank you all again!!
