I've been on diets and exercise regimes since I retired - nothing worked. I finally found a doctor that would do the surgery. Since I can only eat 3 meals a day @ 1/4 cup each, there is no way I can't lose weight.

I didn't have the full bypass where they remove most of the stomach and the upper intestine - they just did the stomach surgery. Now, if I eat more than 1/4 cup of anything (and, LOL, look at your 1/4 cup measuring cup to see how big that really is! LOL), I run a very real risk of tearing the new small stomach pouch they've created.

It's only been four days, and already I've lost 14 pounds lOL> ... though admittedly, that's mostly water weight at this point.
This search feature is the bomb.

You're the only confirmed liar here.
