New to this board...
hello everyone. This is my first time to visit this board and I have to say, I like what I see so far. I have lived the last few years on the Texas Message board, but as with most things, it was time to move on to a more appropriate group of people for support.
A little on my WLS journey. I am over 2.5 years out and have lost 200 pounds...maintained that weight loss for over a year now, but still want and need to lose about 50 more pounds. To me, maintaining the weight loss is just as much success as lossing, so I am not one to complain about my year of no weight loss. I have recently started paying more attention and have started making the changes needed in my life to get to lossing again, like exercise and really getting in the protein as much as I can.
I started my journey without any support other than a caring and lovnig famiy. I was not actively involved in a support group but later got very active in several. I was very active on the texas message board, but most times things discussed were NOT WLS related...although I did get a lot of support and have made many life long friends from the board.
I am really looking for a place to come to and be able to ask questions again and get solid answers from people with expereince...I have been as supportive as I can possiable be for some time now, and now I am needing support in my own weight loss again!!
I hope to be back often and read comments and responces to others' questions and concerns and learn more and more.
Thanks for letting me in...
