I haven't had a problem with my energy levels, but still don't exercise as much as I should.
I have dropped 2 sizes in pants - THAT was exciting and my first "wow" moment since surgery. My friends are congratulating me on my weight loss, but I don't see it in the mirror - that's odd, isn't it? I guess my perception is still of the old, bigger me.
I am just now starting to have alittle bit of energy. Bought a treadmill last week and have been on every day since. Only 15 min, but it's better than nothing. Am trying hard to make it a habit of exercising in the morning so I won't have excuses later in the day.

I am so glad that so many have responded. It seems like we are all handling things about the same. I understand those of you who have made some tough choices because I am fighting tooth and nail not to. I guess I had a false sense of victory, that not wanting to eat by my old habits was just going to "disappear". NOT! I'm definitely going to support group in 2 weeks and listening to what others have to say.
For those up North, I apologize in advance, but today was so beautiful I went to the pool. I wore a new bathing suit that was a size 18 (I NEVER would have written size 18 before) compared to a 24 before. Today people noticed. But yuck, I have to find a longsleeved, long shorts bathing suit to cover the batwings and leg wubble!!!
But when all is said and done, nothing that I wrote about is enough to get me down anymore. I look in the mirror now. I didn't like to do that before.
