2yrs, 6mo out

Not doing well. I am stuck with 20 pounds to loose. Here are my stats. Height 5' 1". Weight has gone from 240 day of to 140 today. I have decided to read the South Beach diet and see if that helps. Is anyone else struggling? I am snacking on junk food that is in my kitchen at work. I don't snack at home because the food isn't there. My problem is work. Even if I bring in my own food, I still gravitate to the snack cabinet. I just need a kick in the behind. I don't work out because I make excuses for my self not to. Thanks for letting me whine.

Hola Tracy, my name is Celines I had my surgery in Jan. 20004 . I went from 296/293 to 126 and I am 5'6". People started to ask me if I was sick because I looked sick, wayyyy too skiny, any way I have gained weight, a total of 35 pounds and I weight 170 pounds. I feel ok with it but I understand your struggle. Let me tell you is not easy to fight back and get rid off those last pounds but it is not impossible. Stay on top of what you eat and don't deprived yourself of treats because we all deserve them. I am trying to control the size of the portions of what I eat but I don't think I will go on a diet. Let's see what my nutrionist say, I have an appointment next month. I have trouble getting all the water I need and many times during the day I feel so thirsty. I feel sick if I eat junk food but I have to be honest, I EAT IT ANY WAY I hope you understand that you are not alone, sooner or later we all find ourselves struggling with food, surgery or no surgery. It doesn't really matter. Any way here I am any time you need someone to talk to. Feel free to email me any time. Good Luck. Celi
