Congrats Robin. My goal is in the overweight category, but it sure beats being super morbidly obese.

Ok so heres the thing...First off thank you all for your input about my "goal frustration" My scale went down 1 more pound! AND I checked my BMI and according to normal guidelines I am no longer obese...I am OVERWEIGHT lol I know sill huh? My husband said "I bet you never thought you would be happy about saying you were "overweight" " lol SO I thought that was important to share...thanks for the prayers and hope everyone else is doing well!!

good luck katie! the fact that you realize it has to be a huge step in the right direction. get some help honey, I'll be thinking of you. hang in there. hugs, judi

wow...........I guess if Im being honest I would have to say that I have MOST DEFINATLEY had and addiction transfer........... I was never a drinker pre-op and I would have never been caught drinking alone but ever since the surgery I have replaced my late night eating with late night binge drinking........ For awhile there I was doing it EVERY night to a point that I would vomit and pass out..........but then my husband caught on and tried to put a stop to it and I told him I would only drink on the weekends.......... well...........it has been a struggle to cut back and I have noticed that I have been hiding my drinking from friends and family........... I never drink in the day...........only at night while my boys and husband are sleeping.........I just like how relaxed it makes me feel while I watch late night t.v. and drift off to sleep......... I will keep everyone updated on my progress to cut back.........

i was JUST thinking belinda i might have a addiction to this board.... (smile) anyone else feel like this?
