Veggies are good for you and if you look around this site, you'll find that folks started losing their last stubborn lbs when they added them into their diet-only lc veggies though. I agree with the fact that you may not have any lbs left to lose. Hard to know, but you've already been so successful. Great job! Start accepting the new you and love you. If the surgery is an option, that's great. I know in my case, everything seems to be going south with the weight loss. Oh well, somethings are worth it. Best wishes!
