Newbie Says Hello & Help

Hi Everyone

 I am new to this board and have been staying behind the scenes and just reading.  I do not think I am at the point of saying that my surgery has failed.  As of today I have gained a total of 5 lbs but DO NOT AN WILL NOT gain anymore.  I am hoping that a good contributor of the 5 lbs is the Chinese food I had last night,  My problem is I have gotten away from the basics.  I am not drinking all my water and have discovered that I can sneak down sweets without dumping.  I came here for help to become refocused with my life long committment.  I cannot afford to buy new clothes since I gave away ALL my larger sizes and only have the size L/XL tops and size 10 pants that I wear now.  I still feel good about myself but would like to lose the last 15 pounds to bring me down to 150.  I am hoping that the lipo procedure I am scheduled for on December 21 will help curb my appetite to get a jump on my weightloss.   I have an appointment at the end of December with my WL Dr so I need to start now,  I am planning on starting on the Time Out plan since others I know that have been on it have lost about 15 lbs.  Anyway, I am glad I found this forum because I know i will get the TLC and support I need to not fail and to stay focused!  Any help, suggestions or support is welcomed!

Hugs

Oh you can easily turn this around now. and a couple of pounds probably was the chinese food.........hehehe Go back to basics.

I kept a food log for two weeks just to see what I was doing to myself....Yikes.

That helps you get a handle on it if you are totally honest.

Good luck.
