Topic: RE: I've been a bad girl.....

I have an account but I am not really active on it.  Thanks for support and kind words too.  I stay positive each and every day!  I have lost and kept off 31 pounds since October.  See blog I wrote last week below.

1st Goal Reached!!

In October 2012 I re-charged myself and I am finally finding my way. I re-set my goals and started weighing in most days. Now I weigh almost every single day and this has helped me. I don't beat myself up and I finally know I do not have to be perfect either to be healthier and successful.

Last wee was the 1st day I have weighed under 360 pounds in a long time -- and I am determined to keep going. I was not able to confirm it this morning because my electricity was out but I feel lighter and know there is no turning back for me. I have had enough ups and downs to know what works for me and I am going to keep doing it. I know I will have some more ups and downs along the way but no worries I will not stay down long...

Now I am striving for my next goal which is under 340!

There's my Molly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I've missed you soooooooooo much!!  It doesn't matter if you haven't reached it yet...it's a journey.  Stay on the road because healing your mind is the most important part! The rest will follow.  It's so great to hear from you.  Are you on Facebook at all?

Hello Yvonne,

How are you?  Well I see it is lonely here.  Hope you are doing well.  I am doing fine.  Still did not reach my goal but I have my progress over the last couple of years for sure.  Holler back when you have some time.

Hugs,

Molly

I am so sorry I haven't been here.  I've done some recent blog posts and yesterday I was interviewed by Dr. Dominic Ricciardi and Dr. Leslie Ricciardi.  You can listen here.
They had some problems with sound so move it forward to close to 10:30 to get to the beginning. Hope you enjoy.
Hugs, Y

Headless "Fat People Pictures" are worth their weight in gold.

Hope you enjoy!

OH I bet that was a great time!  I have met many people in the chat room, but have not met them in person.   Mind you, some of them I would not want to meet. LOL!   Tell me about your wls experience.  You have had surgery already?   Was it RNY?  How did you do on the liquid diet part?  I also wonder about nutrition after surgery.  It is so much to take in.  How did you handle that??  Well, write when you get a minute.  Take care and nice to hear from you.  Sincerely, Tam (katsi)
