[quote=Anonymous]Ok girl, I know exactly how you are feeling!. I gained quite a bit of weight after college, also 5'8.

I've currently lost 20lbs, and the easiest way for me was to skip lunch. I know people say it isnt the best, but I *cannot* have some tiny ass bird meal and fee satisfied. So I prioritized one GOOD meal and less otherwise. I still have a coffee with cream in the AM, but generally work through lunch and have an early dinner. I also still drink wine and beer, which adds calories, so if you cut out alcohol (or dont drink) you probably have more calories to spend elsewhere, like a light lunch.

What sort of activities do you do with your daughter? Can you be more active? Go play soccer or go for walks or carry her for hikes? It sucks going into winter, but as long as you have good clothing it shouldnt be too bad.

I would personally not recommend bariatric surgery, unless your only concern is waist size. My mom got it last dec. She has lost 100 lbs which sounds great! But she cannot drink water when she wants to, she cannot eat most things, she is having major digestion issues. It sounds like they dont only shrink your stomach, they cut off your intestine and re-attach it. Anyways, it's been hell for her. Shes happy shes skinny, but I dont love her current diet-obsessed self. She was also much shorter and larger, so IDK if it's even really an option at your size (no research done though). I just would NOT risk it after what Ive seen. Ozempic would be my preference, personally. If your dr wont prescribe, feel free to try another. I asked my dr kind of randomly, and she said shed do it happily, just warned me about the price as it wouldn't be covered by my insurance (so i decided against since im cheap af).

anyways. That was just a random ramble of thoughts about this, both myself and my mama. I just turned 34, so I feel with you OP. [/quote]
