Topic: RE: fell off wagon, help!
I too fell of the wagon pretty good and never even got close to my goal weight and then picked up 16 lbs in between. I started this program I read about in Woman's World magazine two weeks ago and have already lost 7 lbs and am not really hungry. I'm also back to using www.fitday.com to track my food and try not to eat above 1,200 calories a day, although I struggle during the weekend but get back on track Monday's and do really good during the week. If you'd like the program, I can email you the scanned version I have. I also try to exercise 3-4 times a week for atleast 30 minutes a day. It's really easy and not expensive and sofar so good!! Good luck with whatever you try, it's really really hard to get back on track!!!

Topic: RE: Where are you
I started at 318-320 lbs and my lowest was 194 lbs ... I picked up 16 lbs last year after having 2 surgeries (appendix and gallbladder) in 2 months. I just recently got back on track with my eating and exercising and have lost 7 lbs sofar and hoping to reach my goal of 170 lbs before my PS in May 2008. This time around I really hope to get down to where I was hoping for last year ... sofar so good though!!

Topic: RE: Where are you
I'm doing well. I started at 272 (I'm 5'8"). My lowest was about 3 weeks ago - I got down to 140.4. My original goal was 170 but changed to 155. My doctor's goal for me was 150. I usually hover in the 143-146 ranged. I have a full tummy tuck scheduled for 16 Nov courtesy of my insurance. They're actually covering upper and lower along with muscle tightening - I'm so excited I can hardly stand it. I'm considering Mexico next summer for some other plastics. Just got home from my doctor's annual gala celebrating all of the success of his patients. He's a great doctor and human being. Hope everyone else is well. Take care, Maria

Topic: Where are you
in your weight loss? I know we are all 2 years out but how much have you lost, what was your lowest and have you gained any back? I started this journey at 283 the day of the surgery my lowest was 163 about 5 months ago and now my current weight is 176. I want to get back down to 163 (actually 160) I'm still able to wear size 8-10 but they are getting tight. I want to have surgery to remove all the skin but insurance won't pay for it (they say I don't have enough) WTF what do they know. Anyways I'm going to have a hysterectomy in 2 weeks and then after that I'm hoping to get back on track and get down to 160 by the New Year. Wish me luck.

Hi Amy. Good to hear from you here. Hope you are still fighting daily your personal demons. Admitting there is a problem is step one to finding the solution. As the other poster said, you have some wonderful children who need their mom, so pull strength from that knowledge and hang in there. You can get through this, one day, one hour, one minute at a time.

Vickie, I've followed your story and long ago suspected you had some sort of eating disorder. I'm praying for you that you are able to find the strength to fight the mental demons in your head that are causing you to hurt yourself before it is too late. You just can't keep abusing yourself the way that you do. At some point your poor body will just not be able to take it anymore and you will no longer be here for your children!!! If you can't do it for yourself Vickie, do it for your kids!!!
