I have 3 post-surgery hernias and need to lose 25 lbs before I can have surgery. It seems no matter what I try from WW to clean eating, the scale doesn't move. I do struggle with digesting produce, brown rice, and quinoa. I have also been told not to lift over 10 lbs until I have surgery. I feel stuck and frustrated. Can we take diet pills or do diet shakes? I don't want to end up dehydrated.
