    I'm rowing right alongside you. This is my chance to avoid gastric surgery.

    I am doing this to avoid gastric bypass surgery too...I am in month one of the 6th month "monitored weight-loss period" before the surgery. It is a pre-requisite for my insurance.
    The physician won't fix a hiatal hernia without this surgery, so I am finally motivated to do this!

    You need that to fix a hiatal hernia? Wow. I didn't realize that could be a requirement. I've got one too and my GERD is definitely getting worse. Good thing I'm already losing weight..lol

    I'm in the same boat! i have about 105 to loose! I would love to have you ladies as friends and support! I keep going to back between just counting calories and doing low carb. I don't think I can stick to low carb for the rest of my life so I'm going to try and limit processed carbs and count calories.

    Hi! Different weight goals (mines losing about 30-40 lbs for now at 5 foot 9 inches) but same situation. Mostly just trying to get over all the bad habits I've acquired over the years. Hope it works out for you though ☺️
