Hey everyone.  My RYN was Dec 1st.  As I write this I am just sad.  Nothing is what I thought it would be.  I swore I would never be one of THOSE people that gets the surgery and screws it up and here still I sit screwing it up.  I started at 310.  My highest which was in July was 324 and I am sitting at 225 and have been here or teetering it for about 4 months.  I am into 16s and L/XL shirts but no weight is coming off.  I have a huge fear of going to my one year appointment and having to explain why I am still as much as I was at my 6 month appointment.  I wish I were as strong as you ladies and some fellas.  The will power is gone and after the 3rd month it just stopped "falling" off.  I really want to hit Onederland.  But I am so discouraged because the flab is so bad.  I know if I didn't have the massive amount of flab that I would already be there and be loving it.  I have been really just discusted with myself lately.  I made brownies for the family yesterday and after making myself sick by eating *head hanging down in pure disgust* 4 of them, I threw the whole tray away.  I have no control it seems.  I do not eat nearly as much bread as before.  I mean I might on a bad day eat 2 pieces of bread when before I would eat 2 loaves but that doesn't help me now.  I do not eat ice cream or drink milk as it makes me very sick.  I actually have a paper on the fridge of my NO foods because they make me that ill,,,pop tarts, mil**** cream, sugar over 5 gr, whites, breads, fats, and so forth and yet I eat them and don't know why.  I actually found myself up eatting oreos the other night.  I knew I was doing it.  They were so good.  Then for 2 hours after I slept in the lazyboy with a bowl contemplating if i was going to vomit.  Has anyone else had this I'm pathetic stage hit them in their journey?  Did anyone overcome it?  How????  I need help!!!!

I cant believe the change in everyone, you all look wonderful! I love my RNY! So far I have met most of my goals, the most exciting one was to wear single digit clothes, I actually got in to a 7/8 jeans, what a wow moment !!!! Congrats to all my December buddies!
