To Tina about Starting over!!!!!!!

Tina, That is great!!! You are taking charge and that is what you have to do!!! I am so happy for you. Some times it is hard for us to have our head on straight isn't it?? I know I had stalled and messed around eating carbs and stuff and gained 9 pounds. Well, I stopped also, in fact I am now BELOW MY GOAL!!! It just means we can never forget what it was like before we had the surgery, and we don't want to go back there. We have to be in control of what we put into our mouth and what kind of exercise we do. Our surgery was one tool, exercising is another tool, and portion control is another tool. We have to have all the tools in our hands at all times, we can't just stick them away in a tool box or closet and pull them out once in a while, we have to USE THEM ALL THE TIME the 3 together will keep us healthy and feeling and looking good!! I love you,

Hey Rita... I talked to Leslie and she said to tell you to give her a call sometime, she would love to talk to you.....She is doing great..just been busy with her new granddaughter..oh and now she has a new grandson too.......he is only a few weeks old.....She is supposed to be coming down here to the beach before to long to visit. I can't wait...I still have a hard time with exercising..I do walk home from work every morning and walk to the beach alot..so i guess every little bit helps..........i am so glad you are below your goal..i have such along way to go now since i gained so much weight back but i am determined that i am going to do it..if it takes me a year so be it......thank you for sending me the message.... love ya, tina
