getting close!

Hi all and welcome Shel. Good to have more active people in this group. It was started 5 years ago when some of us got to goal and then thought "now what?"  Early maintenance is scary as we all fear regain. then we get relaxed and after a year or two are able to eat more as sleeve relaxes some and then some of us have a little regain. then we panic and start taking action.  this is the recurring theme of posts here. by staying on this group you go through all this with others and eventually find your path to longer term weight loss maintenance.

I think about this every day and while I sometimes eat bad stuff, I find that almost everyday i decline some food that is inappropriate.  the ability to do this is important and staying in touch with others who do so is helpful.

127.5 today.  got some nice shrimp for dinner so thats a healthy low cal option.  Last night was part of a chimichanga that hubby brought home from a restaurant. not so healthy but only able to eat a small amount. tomorrow is a christmas party where there will be junk but i am bringing healthy stuff.  so it goes for all of us.       diane

Hi Shel,

Glad you're here! It's a great board for getting the hang of maintenance and throwing around ideas, asking questions, etc.... So happy you're joining the party!
