I check in often and read everyone's post.... but I'm guilty of not posting do to lack of time. It's summer now and I find myself extremely busy planting a veggie garden, doing yard work, running kids around, going to little league baseball games, having picnics and so many more outdoor activities. It's wonderful but very busy. So it's nothing personal just a busy time of the year. Come winter again you all will be sick of me...lol. I so appreciate everyone's honesty and I love reading about what's going on in everyones lives. My biggest struggle is incorporating exercise in my daily life... I HATE all forms of exercise and I'm just too busy it seems to make time for something I dread. But I know it's something I need to do... especially if I want to keep this weight off. I have a HUGE fear of gaining back all my weight so even though I have my cheat days... I keep on track for the most part. I don't count calories or calculate how much protein I'm getting each day so I have no idea. I try to eat plenty of fish, chicken, tuna and so forth for my protein. I drink way too much coffee and need to cut back. I probably don't drink enough water but I'm trying to increase that. I never eat breakfast and really want to change this... but breakfast just doesn't agree with me. I sometimes forget to take my vitamins but for the most part I try to keep on track. I rarely drink alcohol but admit I love that one glass makes me tipsy! I weigh 141 and I'm only 6-lbs away from reaching my goal. I'm not sure if I'll ever get there because I seem to keep going back and forth from 142 to 141 and I've been stuck there for about a month now. I feel good about myself but I struggle with fear that this weight loss won't last. I really stress out sometimes thinking this could all end and I could gain all my weight back. I hate being this obsessed and I'm trying to achieve a healthy approach instead of operating out of fear. Just seeing that scale go up 1 pound has put FEAR into my life. I know it's only one pound... but it might as well be 100 to me. Over the next year I hope to work on 1.) exercising on a regular basis 2.) achieving a healthy approach to food and not FEAR 3.) eat breakfast and limit my cheat days to only 1 or 2 a month! 4.) did I mention exercise...lol! Hang in there A-Team... and even though some of us get busy we are still here. {{{hugs}}}

Ok I admit to being a total slacker. I just kind of got the feeling that no one really wanted to hear anymore about the "RNY gone bad" stories and the millions of hospital posts so I quit posting. Allie

Allie we are here for you and I really don't see people here not being stand offish to anyone we are all in this together.. Besides u are a vitial member of the board and it is not your fault your RNY went bad.. We all know the risks of the surgery and not everyone is lucky to cone out w/o complications. I am battling a few things my self and they are not all related to WLS. but I know I have best possible outcome with my treatments now that I am healthy. I am staying strong and comming here helps me and I figure if they are tired of my posts or tired of my ugly mug they can always X me out LOL would not be the first time.I am sure LOL Welcome back allie and I like to know how u r currently doing Lisa
