it didnt work for me.
I lost 120 and couldnt keep it off
I cant vigorously exercise due to exercise
Related asthma and degenerative bone issues.
But mine failed because when my mom got terminally
Ill and i started eating again.
Surgery doesnt kill those old urges.
Also i believe my age factored in.
Ill be 62.
I say do it. Stay on top of it. Be as active as you can.
What do you have to "lose" by trying!
Oh and im back on my pre surgical diet and
At least lost my " covid" weight. Especially after the cardiologist
Told me my heart was enlarging due to being overweight.....
Wonderful motivation...
Good luck !🍀🍀🍀🍀
