Weird story.
I was 2 weeks away from weight loss surgery and at 435, was too heavy so they put me on a medifast liquid diet to lose 20 by the surgery.
Turns out they cancelled the surgery due to a “spot” on my lung. My Gastro who is also my primary said the new X Rays show nothing. “there’s nothing there”.
By that time, I was down about 30 and said to hell with the surgery :)
I still ate badly, just ate less portions of bad stuff!! Not such a great diet!!
Starting to eat healthier.
Wow that reminded me of my situation. I’m trying to lose weight since I am obese. I was told to lose 75 pounds so they can perform the surgery. I told my doctor “If I lose the 75 why even bother to go thru the surgery. I’ll just keep trying to lose the weight after 75”.
I know people who had the surgery but they have some weird side effect.
