Topic: RE: Finished school & gained weight
Hey Girl, you are not alone! I posted something yesterday on this board about this very thing. I know several that have done the same thing. Be mad and embarassed and then move on. Think about your net loss. 3 years ago you would have killed to weight what you weigh right now. Remember that. The fact that you are acknowledging your slip up is great and now you just need to get a plan that works for you. You have to wake up every day and committ yourself to healthy living and to whatever plan you choose to follow. You can't rely on the WLS alone but combine that with a program and you won't lose....or will lose....you know what I mean! LOL

I'm getting nervous about maintaining too. I know how to gain and I know how to lose. But how do you maintain?! I guess we will find out together! :)

Kim you are such an inspiration to me! I can't wait to have my excess skin removed too. We can do this. It is just disturbing when you realize that your tool alone doesn't do it for you. BUT, you just have to realize that the tool is still there to help you and that you just have to put some effort in with it and then that combination will get you where you need to be.
It just makes me sad when I see so many beautiful people that look sooooo fantastic are thinking they are failures when they are not! I am going to need someone to throw this back in my face in a year probably! LOL!!!

Topic: RE: Its been a while!
I KNOW I SHOULDNT BUT I WEIGH MYSELF EVERY MORNING AND I KNOW THAT MY WEIGHT WILL GO UP AND DOWN A COUPLE OF POUNDS EVERY DAY BUT I STILL GET UPSET ABOUT IT. MY HUSBAND TRIES TO TALK ME DOWN BUT I STILL FRET ABOUT GAINING IT BACK. I EVEN TELL MYSELF THAT A "NORMAL" PERSON'S WEIGHT DOES THAT BUT IM STILL THINKING LIKE A FAT GIRL. HANG IN THERE AND GET BACK ON TRACK AND YOU WILL DO GOOD AGAIN. IM NOT GONNA TELL YOU NOT TO WORRY ABOUT 10LBS CAUSE 1-2LBS IS FREAKING MY OUT.

THE FURTHER OUT I GET THE MORE RELAXED I GET AND I THINK IM GONNA HAVE A PROBLEM THERE. BUT I DO HAVE A WONDERFUL SUPPORT SYSTEM WITH MY HUSBAND AND I CANT LET HIM OR MYSELF DOWN. I HAVE WORKED TOO HARD FOR THIS TO FAIL!
