LOL! Linda, I nearly lost my coffee at the Macy's parade. How I remember my own "Float" look so well! LOL!

Yes, I think as time goes by-it's about understanding and accepting new normals. This is actually true for many things in life-like aging, going from Teen to adult..etc. Nothing stays the same and it IS how we perceive and appreciate where we are!

Hugs to you!

Thank you for sharing your great accomplishment and journey. It really helped me come to realize I am doing that myself I had my surgery in Feb 2010 on my 28th bday to be exact @ 311. It was the best thing I did for myself and I am not gonna beat myself up about it anymore neither. My low was 158 I go back and forth 160-163 now. Have been up to 168 though. I know I am way happier than I've ever been and can do so much more. :) Again thank you for helping me think about this whole thing.

Hi !

Yes, it is amazing how rigid we get about 10-20 lbs. I guess part of it is healthy as we are very serious about never going back to where we once were. But I think what happens then is we get to the point of terror/horror/pure fear of seeing even 5 lbs!

Much of my journey and lowest points had to do with all things extreme. I have always had a hard time being in the "medium" zone. Always too much, not enough, all black, all white, horrible or perfect. But of course-none of us really live like this. Sounds like a set-up for failure-or at least thinking we are NOT doing well at all.

It's funny. I always hold off from sharing what is going on. I wait until I can gather my thoughts to what I think will be "good enough".  But what I find is when I do write and share-things get SO clear and it is a HUGE help!

Guess I need to get sharing more!!

Thanks so much for your post!! YOU are doing great!
Peace
