I am not in. I would be cheating. 2 weeks ago, I had Bariatric surgery. Surgery for Weight loss. From last April I have lost a total of 40 pounds. Since the surgery, I have lost 10 of it.

I am not advocating this. Before they even consider you they give you a goal weight that you have to lose and maintain. I had to lose 23 pounds, simply cutting back, and eating their diet. It was not easy and it was not fun, but I had serious arthritis and I was desperate to get the weight off. Pre arthritis I weighed 108. I am a very small woman. Then every movement was pain and I just quit moving. And I shot up to 223. High of 250.

Ladies, 20 lbs will take some organization and discipline. Try to find a Dr who will give you a good healthy diet. (Not one from the best seller list) 20 lbs will make you feel lke a new person. I won't happen overnight. I know you can do it. I did and I am the laziest munchiest person in the world.

Best wishes to all of you.
