Lifetime of bad habits left me at 300 pounds by my 30th birthday, addicted to over-eating, carbs, sweets, salts, preservatives, chemicals...need I go on? Knee pain and not being able to do all the things I wanted to do convinced me food was out to kill me. Diets didn't help, I'd just gain more, knees hurt too much for exercise, so surgery was next.
The Realize Band was put in on 1/14/11. The pre-op diet, along with liquids for 2 weeks post-op convinced me that I could do a detox juicing fast, which I'd been wanting to do for ages. Since then, food is the enemy and I try to view it as a necessity I have to endure instead of a pleasure of life. An overeater like me just can't think of food as a pleasure anymore
