Before you go for the surgery please give one last thing a try. I was 29 yrs old, weighed 265 lbsand my height is 5'1". I tried the atkins diet for a while, yeah it worked but my wieght went back up again. Now I have tried the micheal thurman (6 week body make over diet plan) and let me tell you it works. Its not a diet but a change of eating habbit. You have to eat every 2 hours and its money back guaranteed. You can have all kinds of foods. It all goes by what type of body you are. We are all not created equally regardless of what people say. Regardless of what people tell you you should eat or not eat. This plan is specifically made for your body type. I know what it is to feel overwieght and depressed. Many people don't understand that. There is no quick fix to loosing weight until now. I noticed my weight come off in the first week. Please read up on this so you can familiar yourself with the plan and see if can work for you. I've become my own spokesperson heheh I want to help anyone that could have possibly felt the way I did. There is hope. Let me know what you think. Ps. This way you can save up money for you cosmetic surgery. I know I needed it after loosing 100lbs. You can do it to girl!!! Send me an email if you can. Good luck & god bless.
