well it's 10 month's how are you doing?

Yes It's been 10 months and let me tell youI have never been this size in my life. I started out at 232 pounds 5''4 with a BMI of 39.8 i think and now I'm 132 wearing a size 4 the only thing is I don't won't to lose any more weight maybe gain 5-10 pounds even.

I have to admit - I am a little heart broken. I am so thrilled for and so proud of all of you for doing such a tremendous job!!!! I am disappointed with myself. I have lost 72 pounds - which I am truly thankful for and I feel soooooo much better. I move, I jump, I run with my kids. I have not stopped losing weight (well I did for 5 winter months) but I am losing so painfully slowly. I know what I am doing wrong - not enough water - not paying any attention to protien, eating junk and not exersizing. Does it get any worse? (yes, gaining - thankfully I haven't done that!) I think I have really been taking my surgery for granted. I have been so consumed with all my other responsibilites in life - I haven't put effort into maximizing my "tool". How do you change your bad habits? I am the mother of four young children and I homeschool them all. I am sure that I don't take time for myself because there is so many other things I feel I must do - but realistically - 30 minutes of exersize a day is POSSIBLE. I am a Christian with a strong faith. I should be able to do this. Sorry to dump my pain on all of you, but how do you really change? Athena

Well, Sunday will be my 11th month anniversary...I started at 359 and way 216lbs today a total of 143lbs!!!! I am so afraid of stopping..things have gotten slower but each time I panic is this normal?
