YUP - you have had a lot going on !! Congrats on the house !! YEAH - good luck with the marriage - whichever way it goes I hope you find happiness.

Sorry about the insurance - that SUCKS - but remember you must make YOU a priority !! Take your vitamins and stuff - soooo important !! 

I think logging is a great idea and should go a long way into getting you back on track. Exercise is so important too. So now you just have to follow through and DO it !! YOU can !!!

Topic: so its been awhile and i am slipping

hello all :-)

Lots happening this year.

I just bougth a house! so thats good

My marriage is rocky at best which is hard but i am okay with it and more ready for it to end than my husband
 
i am wearing a size 14 and feeling mostly good

I will be 50 next year and i had my bypass surgery June 1 2009. I am down 85 lbs from my heaviest so thats great.

I think I am headed into menopause, hot flashes the last few weeks, and around the same time i noticed that my appetite crept up to where I think it was prior to the surgery. maybe its in my head but i don't think so, but then again i look in the mirror and still see myself at 255lbs so who knows.

i was laid off jan 31 and i haven't had insurance since may so i haven't been back to tufts :-(

what can i do to fix this or does the bypass only get you started and then the pouch stretches?

thanks for your time!
;Lori

ps I am going to start journaling and making exercise a priority, i am still forgetful about my pills.

Topic: Lenny Clark says he was too fat for lap band
i'm not sure i'm buying that he lost 180 lbs on his own. But can you be too heavy for lap band or bypass?

I was just curious.

Thanks Penny.  I'm glad you're doing well.  The Biotene idea is great.
