      That is absolutely amazing! There are very few people out there who would have the determination to do what you've done. It is not easy to lose weight, but I can't even imagine how hard it must have been for you at 673lbs. I think a lot of people just give up! Don't ever doubt yourself again! You are amazing! I really don't think you'd need the surgery if you keep at what you've been doing! :) Congratulations!!!

      You are an inspiration!

      If you can avoid the surgery - or put it off a little longer - go for it. Talk to your doctor before you make any decisions. But, with your determination, everything is possible!!

      If you can avoid it, don't do the surgery. You are already successful losing on your own and have figured out how to eat less, so no need for a drastic surgery. You found the key on your own. Congrats to you!
