So you gained some back - read this and get on with it!

Amy,

I so appreciate your message!  I haven't really gained, but I have been stuck since December.  My life has sprialed out of my control, so therefore, my eating spiraled out of my control too.  No time for working out...that's a crock!  I have time, it's just making myself go.  I'm not one of those people who enjoy exercise.  I am self-conscious, and I hate walking in to that gym alone.  I have had an eye-opener myself as of late.  My mother and my grandfather are/were diabetic.  I thought I would avoid those problems with my weight loss.  Over the past two or three months, I have had my blood sugar drop to the point that I cannot function, get hot and clammy, and so weak.  I finally called Brandy at Weightwise and she hooked me up wtih Stephanie, one of the dieticians, and we talked about what I was eating.  All the wrong things!  In the back of my mind, I knew that, but talking to her this week has helped.  I'm eating better, AND my blood sugar hasn't dropped once.....and even better, I've lost weight too!  I am using my tool again, like I'm suppose to, and it's paying off again too!  I am going to get to that goal I set....

Something else I have stopped doing is coming to this board for the support I need and to give support to others.  I am going to start haunting the board again.  There's no support group close to me and me being three and a half ours away from Weightwise, it's impossible for me to attend meetings regularly, so this board will help with that hopefully.

Thanks again Amy!  I needed to read that article you wrote! 

Hugs,
Marsha

Amy,

Leave it up to you my surgery buddy to tell me what I needed to hear.  I should've read further down before I posted but alas I didn't.  I'm so freaked out about my weight and I know I shouldn't be.  I'm so happy with where I've come from but also scared that it is coming back on so fast.  I have begun working out (although not as regular as I should) and my eating is just plain out of control.  I do not eat much but man I seem to want all of my old comfort foods when I'm stressed out.  I have terrible eating habits again and have been having trouble getting on top of them.  I was tracking online and honestly I know I need to do it again.  I'm sure my fats and sugars are way out of proportion.  Girl,  you have always been my motivation and I thank you and all of you other wonderful people who have helped me along through this journey.

Love ya all.
