Weight loss

[destinyksofsb]

Last year I went to the doctor determined to get gastric surgery done, thinking that it was the only way that I was going to be able to lose weight. The Dr. puts me on a diet I lose 5lbs in 4 weeks I was proud. It was during the holidays and missed a couple of appointments and had to restart. I ended up with a different Dr. he once again put me on

I can understand some folks wanting to go for gastric banding, have a couple of friends who have had it done. One has been amazingly successful and she is half the size she used to be, the other is thin, but has had serious health complications from having it done. Weight Watchers is great and it's good you are doing it with others, it can be easier in many ways doing it with a support system and also Weight Watchers teaches you to eat a healthy balanced diet, but it doesn't deny you the occasional treat, which so many other diets do and I don't think that works, especially when you are on a long term diet and have a lot of weight to lose.

Congrats on what you have lost so far, that is really fantastic and an excellent start! My best friend, Fiona and I have been on diet for over six months, not Weight Watchers, but simply exercising a bit more and counting calories and eating smaller portions and low calorie meals. So far I've lost 44 pounds. Still have 56 to go. It's not easy, but it does feel great to shed the weight and have clothes fit again :)

I have no doubt you will do great and wish you the best of luck! xx

Thank you so much :) You are well on your way :) It's amazing isn't it? Just how much better you can feel. It really is a great motivator, that and fitting back into clothes that no longer fit at one time :)

You too! :)
