Feeling like a failure

I'm having a tough time and I know I need to look at my successes but the last couple of days have been tough.  I've lost 35 of my 80# regain so far and that's good, I know that. I"m really having a time with cravings and staying on track the last two day. So today I"m trying to refocus, and I really need the help of this group for accountability. I would never have made my goal without the help of y'all and love you all for that. So thanks for reading and I will be working on reconnecting and getting back on the track and staying there.

Oh Loni....you are NOT a failure sweetie.    We ALL struggle with our addiction ( FOOD ) everyday.    Trust me.....I feel your pain.  Congrats on the 35 lb. loss !!!  That is a great start.   Remember to try and put yourself first and your needs.   I need to remember this myself.    If you'd like I will give you my cell number in a private message and you can call me anytime.   I am still a OH Support Group Leader and I am always here for anyone who needs me even though I have my own struggles as well.   I have regained too and I am trying hard to get it off but the weight seems to "like me" and doesn't want to go.   I feel my age is partly to blame for that though.    You are NOT alone in this struggle.    Have you gone to your surgeon and asked for help?   Sometimes they will give you lots of great suggestions.   IMHO the best advice is go back to the beginning and try to start again.   Love you my friend and I am here for you if you need me.

Ok Loni.....I will PM you my cell number.     Please text me your cell number because if someone calls and I don't recognize the number I won't answer.   I'm here for you to keep encouraging you to keep moving forward.   Heck who knows....maybe we can encourage each other.    Looking forward to hearing from you soon.   We CAN do this !!!!
