Phyllis,
You CAN turn that 26lbs around! As you said, you have the tool to do it, we all do. I think that we do go through periods where we are not eating as we should. God knows I'm guilty of the same thing right now. But cir****tances are causing my emotions to rise and fall, probably unnaturally, and I compensate by eating things that I know I shouldn't. I should have better control, but right now that control seems to be flying right out the window. I'm just trying to stay bouncing right around 145 until things settle down. It IS very hard, and you're right! YOU have a choice, YOU have the tool to change things, YOU have to use it! No one can do it for you or me!
Hang in there, Phyllis! Now STOP talking about it and DO IT!!!!! I'm just fighting the "monster" tooth and nail. I'm maintaining status quo and I'm OK with that...FOR NOW!!!
HUGS, Mari

Phyllis are you logging your intake? What are you MOST having problems with? Choices, quantity, the rules in general? You can do this Phyllis but you have to make the COMMITTMENT to make the changes necessary to accomplish your goal.

Well I know I am still under 150, which is my "bounce" range but STILL - first time I've seen 147 and I am not happy about it. And I even went to the gym to work out yesterday....grrr.... well, I always do better during the week so hopefully I just need to push more water and protein. I drink too much coffee on the weekend and generally eat more carbs, too.

Me too, Surgery Sister, me too!!! Gotta get myself under better control and I really don't see it happening in the next couple of months. Then I'll be hanging with Sis and I know she can easily (albeit inadvertently) sabotage me, just with the things that she cooks. All I know, right now, is that the closer it gets to the end of May, the more I loathe this place and want to get the he[[ outta here!
Like you...As long as I can bounce around 145 and stay under 150, I'll be able to live with it and not stress about it too much. Lord knows I don't need anything else adding to my stress levels.
Hugs, Mari

Hello All!
I am losing slowly now and I'm ok with that. I figured that last 10lbs would be the slowest. I'm getting tired of people telling me it's time to stop losing. Oh well, I just tell them I'm almost there.

It's probably just that these people are used to seeing you fat and think that being a normal size is just too thin for you. You know they would NEVER tell anyone else who weighs what you do (that they never seen any heavier) that they are too thin and don't need to lose weight! It's funny how different people's perception can be. 
Just do what you need to do to make yourself and your Doc happy campers.

I think that is a bunch of it, I've been heavy the last 6.5 yrs! I also think it's jealousy. I was thin when I met these people, like 135lbs.

I don't know what I weighed last time I posted here but today I'm at:
135.6
which is not where I want to be and I need to get it down. I want to see 130 AGAIN and stay there. Well let me be totally honest I want to stay at 127 lbs and I KNOW I can get there IF/WHEN I have my mind in the game.
Lots going on in my life right now and I'm using food as a crutch, NOT A GOOD THING but it's a fact. I have good days and bad days both emotionally and with eating....see the them here (emotions = food for comfort).
Considering a back to basics, 5DPT, something or another soon. It won't happen this week (damn procrastinator, yep that's me) too much going on I can't focus on something else right now.
I'll keep plugging and stay on top of what I'm doing and promise MYSELF I'll get where I'm comfortable at again. I'm thinking I need to set a date, whatcha think....I'll make it maintainable.
