It's been a while

Hello OH friends.  I haven't posted anything in a while so I thought I should to let you know that my friend Belinda is finally doing well.  She really had a rough time the first 3 months after RNY.  Now she is 4 months out and has lost about 80~90 lbs.  I can really see a difference.  She is looking great.  My friend Jennifer who had RNY several weeks ago is doing very well.  I'm 2 weeks away from my first RNY anniversary.  I've lost 113 lbs., and have 40 lbs. yet to lose to reach my goal. 

I must admit I struggled a bit a couple of months ago.  I started "testing the waters" with bad carbs by having a little bite of this here and a small piece of that there.  Before I knew it the carb cycle was in full swing.  I thank God for OH.  This is where I first heard of the 5 day pouch test.  I tried it and it worked.  I'm now back on track.  Over the couple of months of being out of control I gained 4 lbs., but now I have lost that 4 plus 3 more.  I wanted to share this experience with all of you because there may be someone else out there that is struggling with the same issue.  Before my RNY when I was out of control I felt hopeless to break the cycle.  But now, I have learned some things about my body and food that has empowered me.  Now I am not hopeless when I slip up because I know that I'm human and will slip from time to time, but I can and will get back on track because I know how to do it. 

God bless you all!
