The only regret I have is not doing this in 2006 when I went to my first seminar on wls. I am doing well and trying my best to live healthy. It is definitely a lifestyle change I needed and I know I was ready for.

My only regret is adding sweets back into my diet although I still eat it in moderation I got the "taste" back in my mouth where I initally could go into a store and not want it now I gotta at least get as much as my pouch will allow.

I wish I would have really strength trained in the beginning and maybe I wouldn't be so "jiggly" now.

I wish I would have known how AMAZING this last year would ahve been

I don't regret that I did it when i did because I think emotionally I have handled it a lot better than I would hav eif I would have done it even 2 years earlier. I did it exactly when I was suppose to lol

I can honestly say i have no regrets, but then I'm just 1 year out. My 1st year I did everything by the book.

Let's revisit this question a year from now. Hopefully my answer will remian the same.

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

I have a question: Do you also omit the desserts that are made w/o sugar? I asking because there are desserts that are made with Sugar Free alcohols and they taste great, but I noticed that when I eat them they make me want more...and those things are loaded with carbs and calories. You think I better forget all of that "dessert stuff". What do you eat that is sweetish, fruit, maybe with whipped cream?

I really want to know what foods/drinks I should end my relationship with up front and not tease myself with all of the "sugar" substitutes. Thanks
