off program

for the last 6 months I havent even tried to stay on track. cant stand the protein shakes and have found carbs again. So I am going to start to go to OA meeting tomorrow and see if that will help. I keep losing and gaining the same 8 pounds kinda frustrating.
I am so glad I got this message for this forum ...maybe it will kick my tush in high gear. WOULD  love to be at goal...need to lose 50 pounds to get there..

I certainly sounds like you have managed to get control of things and have a clear plan of where you want to go. I really beleive that with that kind of determination you can really get there.

Those blasted carbs are what I hate the most. You invite just one to a party and they go and invite all of their friends. My biggest problem with them is that they don't know when to head home...just really bad house guests. I've found that the friendly carbs are from the veggie and fruit family. That famiy is so sweet that you hate to send them home...stick around awhile...stay and visit. In 2010, those bad house guests are just not welcome here.

I've learned that our tool is ready to work once you decide to make it all happen. I hope that you can find what will work for you in 2010.

Best wishes.

Welcome! I think we can all relate to what you are saying. I gave up protein shakes a while back... I just can't get them down anymore. They taste nasty to me. Funny how that was all I lived on right after my surgery for months and now the thought of them makes me want to puke. And those nasty little carbs found there way back to me also and have managed to sabatoge my weight loss. I love John's analogy of them. Invite just one and they bring all their friends. lol. So true.  Well, I'm glad you found us and I hope we can all work together to make 2010 a better year!

Cheers,
Lisa

Thank you Lisa!
I did the post op life months before I became one and now the shakes just dont make it out of the container.I do try and get at least 70 grams of protein in but the carbs are my down fall. John is right one comes and brings all of their friends...
So glad John sent me an invite
