    • Close Diets & Weight Maintenance

      I have always had a weight problem to some degree. I am constantly struggling with healthy eating and balancing the food preferences of my family. Currently I am attending a weight loss group through kaiser and this could lead to Bariatric Surgery if I elect.

      Treatments

      Atkins Diet Working / Worked
      I did protein power which is similar to Atkins. Lost fifty pounds, but I became concerned ab out averall family health of high protein.
      Counting Calories Working / Worked
      Currently doing this through Kaiser support group.
      Jenny Craig Working / Worked
      Lost fifty pounds. But needed to discontinue going because of financial costs.
      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      Works when I actively partake of exercise. This is an area that I need to work on.
      Slim-Fast Somewhat Helpful
      Mental felt deprived of eating.
      Weight Watchers Working / Worked
      Loved this program but still struggled with the mental problems. I would go back to this if I could afford the class meetings.
    • Close Healthy Eating

      Healthy eating is a struggle.I do well, then I fall of the cart.

      Treatments

      I am currently going through a Kaiser program for gastric bypass and I haven't decide if gastric bypass is for me. I need additional support in making the decision.
