Been there done that - 100 pounds lost more than once before!

[Guest guest]

I am one of those who has lost 100 pounds at least two to three times and

over 50 pounds about three or more in addition to that. Several of the times

loosing involved diet pills, thus you go off of the pills, you gain the weight

back. One of other times I had the fear of having a stroke to motivate me as my

skinny, no high blood pressure ever, no previous problems 56 year old mother

died of a stroke. Even that wasn't enough to scare me into keeping it off. Two

other times I got pregnant and the Dr. put me on a high protein diet/low carb

diet, (and this back before the recent Atkins diet was really popular.) With

one of those I lost

40-50 pounds and the other about 50-60. Interestingly enough all of those times

after loosing even up to 113 pounds I still had all of the comorbidity problems

I acquired over the years of yo yo dieting. But not true with the MGB! I have

been off of my asthma, spastic colon, acid reflux, and fluid retention pills

since the day of surgery.

Another successful MGB story to tell
