Time for me to come clean and start over!

I have managed to gain 28lbs from my lowest post surgery weight.  I have gone back on shakes and have managed to drop about 6lbs in the last two weeks.

I am posting this so I won't feel like I am hiding or lurking. I need support, have been getting it in a bag of cookies with Nutella spread over them!

So I am going to follow in the footsteps of my brave friends and be accountable and post almost everyday until I am under 150 again.

I could go over all my excuses why I let this happen, but that won't do me any good. I am going to focus on one meal at a time, one hour at a time, until I can get to one day at a time.

Thanks for being here, seems to be at least 600 of you :)

Just wanted to say good for you for trying to do something now and not wait until it is 58 lbs.  You will get there...one day at a time.  Do you still feel good restriction if you do the protein first rule?  (I am curious)  We are here for you...so please do post often and get that support that you need.  good luck to you...you can do it!!

Hey good for you, you are on the right track. Its so easy to make a misstep or two in this lifelong journey and nothing to feel bad about. Just get back on track and you are doing it. If you go through the older posts on this group you will find many many threads exactly like yours of people who have had a little regain and are taking care of it. You might take time to look at some because the responses contain lots of insight. So keep doing what you are doing and check in often. You have had success and you can get where you want to be. we support you.   Diane

Some people might not support my WLS decision. 
Those people remind me of slinkys. Not good for much but it would would bring a smile to my face if someone pushed them down the stairs.

 keep posting, it really helps.

once upon a time I had a group to talk about Binge Eating Disorder, and later one about Clean Eating.

PM me if you are interested in either of these.

We are here for you.  You are doing the right thing by posting this.  No judgment from this corner, only support and big hugs.   We have all been there done that in the past.  This is for the long haul and the real reason we need each other.  I hope you post every day, good or bad.  It sounds like you have a new plan and a direction.  If you feel weak at any time, just come here and post or PM one of us, or chat with someone on line.  You are not alone, take our strength and use it to get back to where you want to be again.
