Trying to get back on track

Hi everyone,
   It's been 2 yrs this month since my surgery and I'm coming back.  I notice I'm starting to "fill up" once gain.  Had to move up a pants size and am starting to feel uncomfortable.
   So after evaluating what I am and am not doing, I decided I have to get back to basics.  Naturally that means making OH boards a priority!!!  Hoping to get tips on losing the 2 yr poundage!!!
   Sincerely,
Gail

Gail I know it is a hike from Scranton down to Barix, but try the first Saturday support group for a real shot in the arm (or kick int he rear, whatever you need most).

It's at noon the first Sat. of each month. Several of us drive some distance to get there - WELL worth the trip!

Welcome back Gail and Happy 2 Year Surgiversary to you.
Your journey is not unlike any of us who find challenges are different as you approach or pass 2 years. There will always be challenges, and here and at Barix there will always be support. The kind that will help you to achieve your goals and welcome you always. No matter the time away, no matter the poundage. You're never alone and that is a major key to your successing this thing. So come on back to OH or even make a Barix meeting if you can. You'll never regret it and you'll help others in the process.
All the best to you and I'm confident that your year 3 will be just as you want it.

Take care and hope to see ya,

Dennis

Gail...

  I am right there with you I had a weight gain it freaked me out. I had a total break down and returned to basics last week. I returned to the boards in the way of looking for support and did the 5 day pouch test not to lose weight but to get back to basics. I had to get off the carbs and go back to no sugar. Evil demons those two can be! 

You can do this and we are here for you! 

Thanks for the support you guys.  I ordered protein yesterday and I am also starting with the 5 day pouch test.  Then back to basics and back to the gym.

This is the best boards and has great people on it.  I plan on seeing all of you on the first Saturday in May!

I'm with you, Gail. Almost 3 year later...like you....it's all about choices......
