I know--sometimes it is hard to get on the board.  I have been exercising after work and by the time I get hme and get somethign to eat, it is time for bed.  I have been getting home around 9 at least 3 times a week and with 2 support groups once a month (1 for 1 year and out and the regular one where I have started leading small group), it has been busy.  Leading the small groups takes me back to the beginning through the people in the group but I learn from them as well.  Exercising has been going on the upswing but winter wasn't really great for that.

I have been good.  Just trying to get under that 200 mark but I am scheduled for breast reduction surgery on June 10th.  May be enough to get under that 200 pound mark (lol).  But it will put a few week crimp in my program.  I will only be able to walk pretty much for about 6 weeks but the dr said I could be back at work within 1 week after surgery.  I don't know how much I believe that but I have expressed my concern for another week out of work just in case.  I think he will go along with it.

You will find that you will slow down.  I lost 186 pounds from my heaviest by my first year (130 in the first 6 months and 56 in the next).  I have lost about 25 pounds since my 1 year follow up but I expected that.  I don't get too obsessed but that 1 in front of my weight would be nice. 

I will be out with surgery from June 10th possibly thru the 28th.  I'll have more time to post and all that stuff and write too.

Keep it going -- you are doing great.

Happy 10 months. I am a 7/14 too. I am at goal. I am just so worried I won't maintain. Any suggestions? Are you eating more now? 

This is so not a dumb question- I am looking for an answer too. I am down to 139 lbs. my goal was 160. I am happy, but now I think I am losing too much. I eat what I want- I am just not hungry for what I used to eat. In the same breath I am PANICKED that I will gain the weight back.  I hope there is an answer out there!

I freak out when I gain 4 lbs this week today I lost a lb but who knows it could go back up tomorrow. I weigh myself daily if I see a gain I work harder in the gym as well. I also log my food in journal as well. Have you try logging on spark people your eating and exercise. So you can see the calorie deficit. It helps alot seeing where we are slipping up. Stress pays alot in weight gain too. Hang on hopefully the scale will move again in the right direction. I am right there with you trying to get that scale to move in the right direction
