Wow, you look amazing, great job! Really, you’re such an inspiration. My surgery is a couple weeks out and I’m not really having doubts about it, more like questioning whether I can do it and follow through. I hear such horror stories about how difficult the transition is from us eating too much to not ever being able to overeat again, the restrictions and just adapting to an entirely different lifestyle. I KNOW I can do, guess I’m just scared. Like you said, I want to feel better too [emoji4] thanks for sharing!

Thank you ? It isn’t easy but you can do it! Mind over matter. Gaining weight doesn’t happen overnight and neither does losing it. I set goals it makes it a little easier.

I rather thought carbs might not be my best friends, except for real occasion. That you've focused on protein & vegetables and been successful is good info. 10/5 surgery

I was addicted to carbs lol. Sticking with protein and vegetables has worked for me.

Thank you ?. I have lost a lot of hair. I’m lucky it started out thick or I would have to wear a hat. I started taking zinc, hopefully it helps.
