6 months anniversary.....

Today March 17th is my 6 months anniversary..... I am facing this day with mixed emotions.. Happiness and dispare. I am happy because I have lost a total of 60 lbs in 6 months I have come from 350lbs to 290lbs. How ever... My scale doesn't tell a big story My clothes tell a much better story I have come from a size 30/32 to a loose 24. I continue to work out with my trainer each day and rest on Sunday. My dispare comes when I look at my peers and see each of you where I would like myself to be. Last month I was loosing and gaining the same 5lbs for the entire month until I figured out what my problem was.... I had a problem throwing away food....... I would eat what I could at that time but would return to it when I was able to eat again. My doctor let me know that this is called around the clock grazing.. Once I figured that out, I have started loosing again. So for all of us who are battling with slow weight loss. Maybe we need to take a step back and re-evaluate what we are doing and be very honest with your self because if you can't be honest with you then who?... I said this so that maybe I can help someone understand what they are going through and why. As I had to find out the hard way. I thank God everyday for this surgery and I am very happy at the point I am because looking at the big picture I am still loosing unlike ever before in my life. Until later Keep your head up. TJ

Congratulations on your anniversary, your weight loss, and on your discovery of what is keeping you from your goal. I have about a week yet before my anniversary. I am trying hard to get to that elusive 100 lb mark but if I don't make it by then I will make it soon. Keep up the good work and best wishes jan 317/222/154
