I feel I have to give any people considering surgery this link: Weight Loss Surgery : Disease Proof

I read "Eat for Heatlh" myself, and it's full of info about why you should eat what Dr. Fuhrman recommends. Which is the most important thing. Knowing why I shouldn't eat unhealthy food is what keeps me going. I can't even imagine eating anything with added sugar, now!

I hope this helps.

PS: I'm almost at my ideal weight because of this diet. I eat until I'm full, and I don't feel the urge to snack anymore. I just wish we had more vegetables here! I've lost 11 kg / 24 lbs "only", so I wasn't really obese to begin with. But that extra weight had been making me miserable for the past 15 years. I've finally gotten rid of it!
