Hi Pat, Yes, it is hard to believe it is almost 2 yrs. I am doing okay. Struggling with the eating issue and am planning on going to a support group offered by my surgeon. Hope to stop the problem before it escalates. I have gained 5 lbs., which is not a lot, but it can be the start of something if I don't nip it in the bud. Wishing everyone a wonderful holiday season. Linda

I think we will all strugle with eating in some way. Food was such and issue for us before. I found that when I was going through some really hard times this year I did not know how to cope without food, so I ended up baking and pushing it on others, I do not want to abuse food myself, but I do not want to be a pusher either. I hope the support group helps you and I am sure you will be great and that 5 lbs gone in no time. Jenn

Thanks Pat! Same to You!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tracy B 328/150 5'9"
