Topic: HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO ME!!!!
Hello out there to all our NOVEMBER grads....
Well where do I begin. I'm 3 yrs out and have had some complication but you know what..... I'm so thankful for the surgery. I'm a better person as a result.
People ask me if I would do it over again knowing what I know now....
HELL YEA I say!
God bless us all!

Hi Peggi,
Oh My God!!! I am having the same problem. For the past few months I thought I was the only one having this problem. I have been working out, but for the past few months I feel like I am always hungry and the Carbs are just driving me crazy. Its like I can't stay away from them. Let me know how your progress goes. It would be nice to chat with other November 2005ers that are having some of the same problems.
Good luck,
Kim

Peggi, I feel like i am in the same shoes.. that is why i have checked back into this site. I hope it serves as some daily strength to remind me to choose better.
i read an article today.. this is a quote that helped me: "long term success is defined not by whether you stay on track, but how quickly you regain your balance when you start slipping off."
I have been weak and blind.. now, i know i have to pay more attention to what i put into my mouth.
i am here to find support.. maybe we can keep in contact to give each other encouragement and reminders of our ability to choose better foods.
