Hello

Hi, Keesha. I am not sure of your situation, or why you've gained 8lbs. But, I think sometimes we over compensate for the idea that we're going to miss out on food after the surgery. You are not going to starve. You aren't going to have to give up foods you love. You'll eat all your favorites again.

As far as trying to get that 8 back off, try small steps. Make sure you're drinking 64 oz of water, before you ever get to have any other type of beverage. (besides a morning coffee cuz I'm not a monster!!) The next week, continue that but add a serving of vegetables to every meal. The next week .. You get the idea. You can do this!
