Soup du jour, I haven't tried low carb dieting. The dietician focuses on an intuitive eating program where you learn to listen to your body's cues, eating only when you're hungry and choosing healthy food. I've always been a fairly health eater. She doesn't know about the fatty liver yet so that might change things.
i know a few people who've been successful with bariatric surgery and a few who've gained back the weight. I'm encouraged that you were able to lose weight while taking your AP.

That gives me hope.
