I have doubled my bodyweight and need to lose what I have gained!!!! I really would like to see my youngest one grow up (she is only 7), PLUS, if I have to have surgery again, I do not want to be a whale on the OR table. I have also sought professional help from the Cleveland Clinic and am going on a protein sparing diet... But there is nothing like support from others that are fighting the same fight!

Thank you all for reading my post!!!
Welcome to the site ImissME! Sorry to hear about your liver mass . You have plenty of time to get yourself at the weight you want to be at, and you seem very motivated (and for the right reasons)! You are already a step ahead!

Protein sparing diet, i.e. very very low calorie intake while still consuming a decent amount of protein I take it? Just curious, how many calories and grams of protein a day do you plan on consuming? I really hope it works out well for you, and we would all love to hear your progress with this weight loss plan!
