If you haven't done so, be sure and read yesterday's post from "Lucky writer". She lost more than 300 lbs and has kept it off for 3 yrs.
It seems most people on tv who have lose weight has done so by gastric bypass. I can't imagine that is the best option for me. I really do believe eating properly and exercising regularly is the healthy way to go. I'm not sure which is harder! Let's see, having risky abdominal surgery vs eating health and walking 20min a day? hmmmmm I've had major surgery on my back 3 times and I don't want to turn over and let them do the front! So, I'm doing it this way.
This time next year, I hope to be half my current weight. Wouldn't that be wonderful! I want you to join me. And look, NO STICHES!

| Yes, you're doing it the right way Stacey. Almost everyone I know, who's gone the bypass surgery route, lost very quickly and steadily for the 1st year or so...and then gained all their weight back, because they didn't change their lifestyles. |
