Asking for your opinion!

i hear you with the diet part of this.  so just think of it as going to support your daughter.

maybe along the way you will pick up a few tips that you find helpful

hugs, jacki

Thanks! I appreciate your opinion.

I still go to TOPS for a weekly weigh in. I'm almost  4 yrs post RNY. I still need to be accountable to that scale. Not obsessed, just accountable. I spent way too many years avoiding the scale. I look at it as a support group. I take what I like and leave the rest. Think of it as a food plan for life which is what we all are trying to do.  Just my humble opinion.

I like your thinking. It is a great support system.

Well, it would be a nice Mom-daughter support thing We alllll need support and the Mother-daughter relationship is soooo important. Even if your heart isn't totally in it ... do it for HER!

Thank you. I don't know what I would have done without her support.

She was there to support you in your time of need, now she needs you.  Take what you can use from the meeting and leave the rest.

Good advice! Thank You!

I joined in the fall, to get the materials because my hubby wanted to do it and with his work schedule he cant attend meetings. I went for several weeks and the only reason I stopped was, we went on vacation and I got behind on meetings and didnt want to pay for meetings missed.
However, I lost weight doing the core plan, which now they have incorporated that all into what they call the momentum plan. Its a lot like our "protein forward" eating, so it works for us too. I needed the accountability of the scale too, lost 7 pounds in a short time. I got some great recipes, like the taco soup I shared here,
Its free registration now till March 9th I think, you just pay the weekly fee to join.
Its a lifestyle, not a diet, A diet is something you start and end,,a lifestyle is something you live . I just took that attitude when I started. I was a WW dropout countless times before WLS, so I felt a little trepidation when I went in, but when I saw that I was one of the smallest ones there,,it was kinda neat! A whole new scenario! I probably had the least to lose for a change!
Hubby has lost 30 pounds so far, so Im glad I went, and I am going to go back next week for myself. It just helps me work the tool, if ya know what I mean.

Good luck in whatever you decide. Imjust sharing my experience!
Blessings
Betsy
