This is only My opinion....I have been known to be wrong. You are starting out right by way of Sparkpeople.com. I had three friends have surgery. One did well. One was very very sick. One has lost 130 pounds but did not change her lifestyle. She is currently struggling not to gain the weight back. Another lost 140 pounds and is currently gaining weight with binging. She too has not incorporated exercise and good food habits. The last one has lost 100 pounds but has been very very ill since day one. I on the other hand announced at the time of their surgeries that I was not going to be left behind. I have lost 100 pounds, Recently I gained 10 but am back to exercising at least one hour every day. Read my blog entry on "how I lost my first 100 pounds". Either way you choose to do it...surgery...diet and exercise...or both...YOU CAN DO IT!!! You DESERVE IT!!! There will Never be in ALL of Eternity another YOU! 4390 days ago
