After being Obese, I can finally say (with a tear in my eyes), I eat to live, not live to eat!!!!
Good for you! It's an important mindset change.

Goal reached in 13 months - 212 total pounds lost including pre-op
(M1: -20) (M2: -18) (M3: -11) (M4: -11) (M5: -14) (M6: -1) (M7: -18) (M8: -7) (M9: -15)
(M10: -13) (M11: -7) (M12: -10) (M13: -10) (M14 -6) (M15: -7) - 168 lbs lost post-op
Always remember that. I suggest you print that out and post it everywhere in your house. What is easy to do at 10 months out is not so easy further out. Maintenance is when it gets tough. Good luck!!

Keep that thought and keep the path.......So important during WL.
Establishing a new healthy relationship with food can be paramount for long term success.
I am more into food now than ever before, now it's quality and preparation of proper foods vs. quantity.
Wipe the tear and get it done !
