Didn't know About This Forum!!!

Hello Everyone!  I didn't know about this forum!! But I am glad I found it .. I felt like I was the only one here trying to lose these pounds without surgery.  I was looking at the Duodenal Switch procedure.. I mean really really contemplating it .. but I started to give this thing a chance... I don't think I could honestly say that before now ... I really gave it a real chance.. I am watching what I eat .. Carb are not my friends.. and neither is sugar... or soft drinks.. I eliminated a lot from my daily  intake.. I eat healthy and I have lost 50 pounds .. I drive a truck so I have to do things a little different.. I am eating good... never hungry and shedding weight .. I wanted to get something I could stick to forever.. and I think I found it ... I eat a lot of meat and veggiesI was 451 pounds .. I last weighed in at 396... and I am feeling wonderful.. Its coming off and I am super excited....YEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSs! So let's talk and share!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello and welcome to the forum!!
Congrats your weight loss...more than 50 lbs that's AWESOME!!!!!

Most carbs are my enemy too.

No food, no cookie, no snack tastes as good to me anymore than the feeling of being healthy, at goal and looking good!!

Hang in there....it won't come off over night but it will come off.  If I can do it, so can you!!!!

Keep posting!!

Hello and welcome! I started coming to this website back in 2005 when I was trying to decide to have WLS. I decided against it and re-joined Weigh****cher's for the 4th time in my life. I made a promise to myself not to quit this time, and I haven't!

Congratulations on your -50 lbs!!! That is fantastic!! Keep up the hard work- losing weight without surgery is definitely possible. Just be willing to push through the times when the losses slow down because if you stick with it, they will keep coming!!!

Good luck!

Thanks Yall! I am will continue to post and will be try to be as encouraging and enthusiastic as I can..! I love this website and I think I am gonna love this particular forum even more.. I feel like I can do this.. I am under 400 my next goal is to get under 375.. !!!
