Hi Jimmy,

With it being the Eve of Christmas Eve, I'm feeling sappy.  You made my day with your post.  I feel the exact same way about you.  Your friendship is special to me.

Hi Cassie!

Welcome to my OH Group.  I'm very glad that you've joined us as a member.

Sometimes those last few pounds can be frustrating.  I know they were for me.  Something that I did that I can share with you is that I just kept doing what I'd been doing that worked for the 90% that I did lose.  If you keep doing what's made you successful so far, those last few will be gone too.

Also, rather than focus on those last few that you do have to lose, focus on the huge success you've had so far.  Appreciate and celebrate those non-scale victories.  The NSVs are things you can do, don't have to do that are different for you now.  Having more energy, wearing different clothes (styles and sizes), decrease in medications, feeling more confident and all those accomplishments.  I know for me, I obtained tunnel vision on what more I wanted to lose.

Again, welcome!!

Cathy

 Hi Sandie (and Cathy and Jimmy)...I'm just at the beginning of this journey.  I had my lap-band surgery last Wednesday and am feeling pretty much back to normal at this point.

Cathy, btw, I'm enjoying your blog!
