Hey Cathy, I just came on board with this and am trying to get back on track myself. I am unfortunately blessed with cross-addictions and have gained back 75% of my weight since surgery in 2003. Now is time for "ME" and I have to make it work this time for myself, not others. So... yes, I am interested in giving and receiving support!

Thank you!
Debi

Ok, I came to this board because I thought there might be some folks out there like me who needed the motivation to get back on track. Not much posting going on. Is there anyone out there who needs the support and wants to keep up with each others progress. I could use the help, but will go on to another site if you all are not doing this anymore. Last post I see is in November other than mine.

Hi Joanie, I am wondering how you did with your goal. Its not the end of January yet, but i know it has been hard throught the Christmas "EATING" season. I too am trying to get the extra poundage off me. I have gained about 15 pounds since my low of 171. I am so disgusted with myself, but am going to get this back off...come hell or high water....as my grandmother used to say!

Topic: Need some motivation...

Hi all...

My name is Joanie. I had WLS in July of 2004. Over the last two years, I have gone through a divorce and had many upheavals in my life. I have three wonderful children and an amazingly supportive boyfriend. Yet, I have gained about 30 pounds from my low of 179. I have started the 5 day pouch test today and have finished my first day and am quite proud of myself. I would like to loose 10 pounds by Jan 1st. I know that I need support and accountability. So if any one needs those things too, let's get together and do that.

Thank you,
Joanie

Hi Amy,

Ten is great

, keep working and don't get discouraged, you will loose the other 25 too if you set your mind to it and stay on track...Just remember to be realistic on the time needed to loose those extra pesky pounds after you have graduated for your honeymoon period - you CAN succeed, you've proven it already with your successes up to this point...

Topic: Update

Hello,
I was at 202 when I joined this group(in April) from a low of 187 18 months ago. I had an appointment with my PCP last week and I weighed in at 187.5! I hope to lose 5 more by my 6 year surgiversary in October. I would be so thrilled to be down to 179.5. I have never weighed this much in my adult life; I have been over 200 since I was 10 years old. I was also 5'8" but still.
