As many of you know, I have struggled for over a year now. A slipped band, an unfilled band, then surgery to fix the band, with 8 months of trying to get back to restriction.

I finally got very good restriction back in November, but my mojo was gone and I just wasn't losing weight. I was eating the wrong stuff too much of the time.

Well, my mojo is back, baby!!! I have been going to the gym faithfully for a couple of months, but a few weeks ago, I really stepped it up by going on a 3.5 mile walk during my lunch. I have also been eating better!

Well, the scale hasn't shown a big jump yet, however I have noticed a difference in my body shape. Tonight I went shopping in my closet and was able to wear some of my size 12's once again!!!

I was down to a 9/10 at one time, then went back up to size 16 with some pants!! I am so excited and so glad that I am loving me once again!! Thanks for letting me share!!!

Brilliant! Hoepfully all your problems are behind you!

Whichever surgery we have, if our mindset isn't right - it doesn't work!
