NEVER SAY NEVER!!!!!

How ya doing stranger? 
Been missing you around here!

I'm having a few health issues but I can't complain. I read here daily but don't post much. I like keeping up with my TN people. 

Wow, you miss a few days on this board, and somebody gets slapped with a cinnamon bun!  Scott, been there, done that, gained 5 pounds!  While Ron was in and out and in and out of the hospital, my old demon emotional eating hit and I ate. I didn't exercise.  And gained 5 pounds. This week I got back on the wagon with a liquid protein train for 3 days, increased water, decreased carbs, and increased exercise.  I only weigh once a week on Sundays so I don't know yet if I have lost, but I am back on track.  I, too, have found out the scariest of things...I don't dump on sugar.  I do, however, dump on fat. As a new postop, I too said..I will never test my pouch, I will never eat sugar, I will always journal all my food.  Well folks...if you are really losing the weight and getting healthy...LIFE gets in the way!  And, its supposed to!  But, you have to keep a handle on eating and catch it quickly, like Scott did.  This is a lifelong battle, a lifelong journey, not a race, or a sprint.  We must be diligent.

Scott, I'm here for you brother, I can empathize with you. Let's fight this battle together!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL, Yes Marilyn a lot can happen in just a few days on the board!   It can be like a soap opera...  you can no****ch for a year, come back and in two episodes, know everything and realize, lots happened... but nothing new! LOL
