Join us in 2010

Hi May 07 friends,

I'm inviting you to a little group to help those (yes, including myself) who have gained 10 or more pounds beyond that lowest weight. We are calling it the "Drop 10 for 10 Challenge". You can easily join this group by going to www.obesityhelp.com/group/Drop10410. I'm hoping that with your help we can generate a little excitement and enthusiasm for getting back on track. We will have a monthly weighin, but it will only be pounds off since the start of the new 2010 decade. Your participation is only what you want to make it. I'm pumped up and ready to get back on track for 2010.

There are no hard and fast rules for joining, but you really should be at least 10 pounds above your lowest post-surgery weight and interested in getting things back in line.

Let's get this new decade off to a great start.

I'm here John, see my hand raised?  Yea, I need this desperately and will be going to 10410 as soon as I'm done "letting it all out"" here.  It's a combination of laziness, and "life happens" stuff, and, according to my surgeon and nutritionist, I haven't done "real" damage, but I know what comes next if I'm not vigilant.

But holy cow! 3 YEARS!  Can you all believe it?  Tomorrow is my 3-year surgiversary and while I'm not at my lowest, I am close, and happy, no, greatful to be here.  

Looking forward to "clicking" with all of you again....

HAPPY MAY SURGIVERSARY!

You look FABULOUS Cyndi!  I've gotten a little lazy too.  I think it's the thrill of the new life. lol  Or, it's those darned Chips Ahoy cookies that still call my name.  Okay, I can do 2 now instead of 2 bags but that's not the point. lol

I still can't believe it's been three years!  Sometimes I don't remember the "old" me and sometimes she's right there in the mirror.  My daughter pulled out the "you don't understand what it's like to be fat" card the other day.  I pulled out my pre-op pic and said "I don't?".  She's 13 now and really doesn't remember the "old" me that well.  I think that's pretty great.

Keep in touch!  I lurk here a little.  Maybe I should update my blog.  Good things are happening for me finally!
