    I started the process at 394 and was at 366 on the day of surgery. Followed food progression exactly as instructed by my physician and had no problems. I have never felt hungry so eat by the clock (eat some type of protein every 3-4 hours. Find something you enjoy doing for exercise and don't accept any excuses why you can't do the exercise. Bad weather, walk in the mall or store. Stuck at home, find exercises online. Exercise was probably the most important for me. Even with a bad knee, I found a way to exercise every day, including Christmas Day.

    Best of luck on your journey to a new you

    I began this journey at 470+ lbs and got down to 278 before surgery. Now I stay between 180-200 and its been six years since my surgery. My weight loss has been awesome and maintenance isn't hard.
