Hello hun ~hugs~ Lost some of the focus but getting back slowly! Changing some things I need to but it is slow.   thanks for posting... ~hugs~

Nothing wrong with slow changes, those slow changes are the ones that seem to really stick over time.

Jim 

Jim, Yes you are right, just changing those habits are very hard to do.   I know I will get there, someday!

Hey honey!
Nice to see your post. Congrats on your 3 year surgiversary. It's hard to believe it's been 3 years!!! Wow, time flies when you're changing your life, huh?

Are you feeling overwhelmed with the small regain or are you at peace with it?

I gained back 14 and have lost about 6 or 7 of it. I never actually got to my own personal goal, so I wasn't at peace with regaining when I hadn't gotten where I wanted in the first place. My 2 year surgiversary was in the beginning of May.

I've separated from my miserable marriage, started back for a master's degree in nursing, and got a new puppy to boot. It's been quite a year, but all in all, I'd do it all over again in a heartbeat. Very challenging, but worth it.

Tell us more about you. How's work? Are you taking a vacation this summer? How's the hubby? How's your state of mine?

Do tell....
Big hugs to you,
Amy

Amy, My state of mind has not been very good really! I am taking steps to get myself back into the right frame of mine but change comes slow! Much work! I never reached my own goal either so at this point I am looking at losing 50 lbs and I think I would be ok with it. I am trying very hard to accept my weight right now but it is not working very well.   I will send you an email hun to talk more about that. Wow you have had some year yourself! Congrats on getting back to school, that is a big thing! Work is going well for me now and I think hubby and I are going to be waiting until Dec to go to Canada to see his family.  ~hugs~
