Hello - new to this board (BMI over 50)

I just happened to see this board and wanted to say hello & I just bookmarked this forum.

I am working on getting back on track and had my RNY in October 2004. I lost almost 300 pounds and gained back 80 over the last 3 years. I decided in February 2010, that I could not go over 400 pounds ever again--so I started doing something about it.

I have made a good support team for myself and I started posting back to OH.com after a 3 year absence in March 2010. My main goal now is to get under 300 pounds by March 2011. So far I have lost about 20 pounds. I am still yo-yoing on 5 of those pounds right now but I am still pleased that I have not gained another pound.

This month I am going to focusing on eliminating the carbs I have let slip back into my diet and I have already eliminated the fast foods so that helped me to stop the gain. I am please to report I am exercising almost every day now too. So I am putting it all together slowly but surely. Please read or skim my blog for more details.

Thanks in advance for your support and any suggestions you may have is helpful and greatly appreciated.

Mollie--
I KNOW you will be successful! You've done the right things--gone back to support, you are exercising and eating correctly. This is a lifelong process and we will always fight the demon that made us obese in the first place.

Bravo!!
