peace and love baf...my how time flies...i am 7 years out and what a journey!!!

pre- surgery: 306
day of surgery: 272
lowest weight: 170 (but very ill)
current weight: 200

i was maintaing at 180 until about a year ago and have balooned to my current weight...this is mostly due to drinking and partying waaayyy too much, not exercising and careless eating...i had a tummy tuck all the way around (forgot what its called) in 2007 and im still flat in my lower abdomen but the top is where the weight is now and it looks gross...getting back on my game...

i thank god that although i have gained 20 lbs from where i want to be, i am not in the same poor health as i was before surgery...i feel good about my progress and am not afraid to live life...i have been having such a ball...

all be encouraged and be careful with the alcohol...that stuff is the devil

peace

I can relate except my gain was from quiting smoking and now I am determined to drop the excess weight!  I know you can get back on your game and get to where you want to be.  All the best to you.

It's always a good day to get it started again.  Begin at the began!....And work your way back into it.  You are not very far off target, and your goal is well within reach.  You can do this!  Just make a little effort everyday to do something to get you back on that wl track.  Everyeffort makes a difference long term.

Best wishes on your continued journey!

Yeah... I understand it has been 5 years for me and I am 173 but my goal is 160lbs... I had to give up the alcohol by the grace of God... because it had became a problem... I thank God for a sober lifestyle... I am approaching 10 months of soberity and I pray will continue on this road...
