another old timer coming back
So I've noticed alot of the "old" 20somethings who had surgery a few yrs ago making a reappearance, so I feel like I need to do the same!
So I had my surgery 2 yrs and 2 months ago this coming monday :o
I can't believe it! I am so happy and proud of myself, I have lost over 100lbs!! But I still have 25 to get me to my goal of 150.
Like some others have said, I noticed I was much more diligent and tougher on myself when I was posting to this board. I've been struggling with these last 25 for a looooong time. And the fact that I can eat EVERYTHING without problems isn't helping haha. So here I am, making my come back.
Now, something I know that used to help me that was up on this board was a daily post where we'd all list what we ate for the day to make us all more accountable. I was thinking we should get that going again, if anyone is with me? (and I hope so!!)
Congrats to all of us on the losers bench and good luck to all of those who will be joining us :)

Yep....I needed the reality check too.....good to hear from you. June 9, 2008 is my 2 yr mark and I have 15 lbs left to lose so that I feel "safe". Having super hard time getting there. But I have started running again and I am running my first 5k on April 3rd.....super nervous. But I am going to do it!!!!
I can eat "everything" too and it sucks. But I am learning self control......and remembering to listen to my body. 34 years old and you think I would have learned to listen a long time ago....ROFL!!!!!
Well good luck and maybe I need to get on here a little more to motivate myself.....ttyl
