Out of Control!

Hi Kristy - I would just echo what I said to the original poster -- go back to basics.  If you aren't logging your food go back to tracking every single mouthful.  Set yourself calories, protein and carb goals and stick to those.  Make sure you are at least 80 oz. of water a day and are doing some type of physical activity for at least 30 minutes.  You don't have to go crazy with exercise but movement is key.  

Thanks

OMG girl!!! You and I must be channeling! I too am a little over 2 years post op and have put about 16lbs back on since surgery. There are alot of foods that I still cannot eat to this day that I know would be good for me but that a stomach issue. I am not making any excuses either...this is all me and I have to get back on the bandwagon again and soon. Like you, I will never see anything over 200 again and it's that scary thought of itching up back to that mark that scares me into thinking "what the hell am I doing"...

I wish you all the best with your new journey back to healthy eating and habits...I am as well as everyone here i'm sure, right with you and cheering you on...

Thanks for listening,

I needed this today!  I am up 12 pounds from my very lowest and will be 2 years post op on August 6th.  I workout 5 days a week and got very relaxed with my food because I was working out so much.  I have to get back to my protein shakes and stop the madness.  I'm so sad today after getting on the scale but I did not come this far to quit and watch that number go up any more.  Wishing you all the best!

You too! Good luck u CAN DO THIS!!! Yes we have come to far to go back now...

I'm a year out and I was going to be satisfied in the 170 range.... It's a number that I know I can maintain, but that being said, I would really LOVE to see 140.  So that means for mean, that I need to quit the comfort zone, where I can occasionally eat carbs and occasionally eat sugar and get back to the basics and the reason I did this in the first place.  You've given me this motivation to step out of the comfort zone.  We can do this!

"me" not mean
