I am sorry I haven't been on the board much lately. I need to do better. I will be out of town next week in KC again. I have resubmitted to insurance for my plastics (fingers crossed). I should knew in a few weeks their answer. My weight is pretty steady but I do have a lot of times I shouldn't eat this or that.. ugh. why do we do it?

Id like to see 140 again. My lowest was 131.6 for a day and held at 133 for a couple months.. but really after plastics I would like to be in the 130's somewhere. So 140 is what he wanted me to maintain at so I am shooting for that. I feel good there.
Have a good weekend everyone! Do you think daily food logging is what we need again? thoughts? Or does that seem to "juvinile" for where we are in our journies?

Going to try to get my sleep under control this weekend (got way out of whack due to odd hours at work this week) and get back to exercising on my treadmill.

Now I'm above my surgeon's goal so the excess has to come off quickly. I refuse to give up my 100% status.

I am also in a similar situation...eat and eat and eat ALL the wrong foods and need to stop that NOW. I made it to goal and promised to stay within 5 lbs of that and it already happened so I need to change my eatings and go back to basic. Won't allow myself to be overweight again....
Thanks for replying to this..it is nice to know we are not alone..I keep saying today is the day and then I eat something. I have been "good" since Wednesday and have really been thinking more about what I am doing and why I did this. I look at myself in the mirror and think "Yes, I do look better then I did but I am still FAT!!!" People have surgery at what I weigh now (and less) which is down right depressing!! I have to keep telling myself that I did not go through ALL that I did for this...(I had a ton of complications in the beginning).
I hope you come out of lurking and as I think we could help each other.
I do not know what has happen to everyone but I do miss this room!!!
Hugs
It is still weird for me. I can't see myself any other way. I know I am no longer the biggest person in the room now but I still feel like I am. I still feel like the biggest person everywhere I go. I see other over-weight women when shopping and wonder if I look similar body-shape-wise, becasue that is how I feel. It is very mentally conflicting sometimes.
Every day is a NEW day! Do your best today! Don't worry about tomorrow until tomorrow gets here. Do what you can Today!
Moving on...

Hi Melissa, glad you had a good week. Mine...not the same. :( This month I've been really extra depressed and don't want to do much of anything except eat which still doesn't solve the problem and then just makes me sick. Pooh. Not good numbers on Weds. but here they are:

Last week I was sure I was up from sodium and did, in fact come back down but then ate it back up again for real over the weekend and it has just kept going. Lots of stress at work and home but it will even out pretty soon so I'm trying not to be whiney. It'll sort out and I'll get back on track, I know.
Most all the folks in town are all beat down by the winter blues this year so I'm in good company, at least. I bet we will see a huge resurgence in jogging and race participation if Spring ever arrives here.
A little more snow due tonight and more bitter cold temps. Sigh....
