New found excitement
Wow, it’s been a long time (too long) since I’ve been on this site but am I ever grateful for everyone sharing their experiences and advice. I am a little over 5 years out from my surgery, which was very successful (too successful according to some). I lost 105 pounds (starting weight was 244) and when I was at my smallest at 139 pounds; family members started complaining and making remarks about me being too thin ~ who knew there was such a thing?!? So, I intentionally (yes you read that right) tried to gain back 15 pounds. As we all know gaining is so much easier than losing; unfortunately, I am now up to 181 and HATE it!!! Every night, I have the oh to familiar pep talk with myself about how I am going to eat better and exercise the next day…..we all know how that ends. Last night as I was ‘once again’ trying to figure out just want I needed to do to get my life back in order, I logged onto this site and read about the 5 Day Pouch Test. I am so excited to start this on Tuesday. I am sure you are wondering why wait? Well, tomorrow is my 29th wedding anniversary and it’s a holiday weekend, so not setting myself up for yet more failure. I’m documenting my goal of losing 31 pounds here because I know this is the one place where I will find the guidance, support and understanding I need to make this a reality. Thx ~ D
