 RESPONSE:Blaze Panicola September 22 at 9:28am thanks!! i actualy CHEATED! i had gastric bypass surgery on feb.23.09. i weighed 293 before i had the surgery, and was gaining ALL the time, no matter what i did! :(.... so, as soon as my insurance kicked in, i got the ball rolling with dr. jawad, and had my surgery a month later. at first, i was always ashamed to tell ppl that i had the surgery, becuase i know some ppl see it as the easy way out.. i even knocked the surgery in the beginning... but, my thought was.. i was 23 at the time, steadily gaining 20 lbs a year since highschool, my feet and knees hurt, i didnt have a normal life... everything from clothing, to work to travel was SO difficult for me (i had gotten to the point, for about 3 years that i wore nothing but SKIRTS cuz trying on pants was just too stressfuly, a skirt only has to fit ur waste ya know)....SO... ive lost a lil over 110lb.. im 180 right now... i have NOT met my goal weight yet... and i need to get back into the gym more often. its a constant battle... but i could not have done it without the surgery.
i go to planet fitness, $20 a month for unlimited tanning and gym, with unlimited passes to bring a guest with me... i love this gym! i recommend it!!
btw, a HUGE thing about eating, just a tip that i have to use becuase of my surgery, yet is a HUGE help out in the real world withOUT having the surgery... ALWAYS watch ur portion size... use smaller plates and silverare (it really works lol), in restaraunts-get a togo box, and box up some of ur food as SOON as u get it, so u wont b tempted...and always try to eat ur meats first.... ur belly gets physically full, and mentaly u r satisfied most....then go on to the sides or salads.... and desserts! ;)
