Topic: RE: Looking for a walking partner....
Hi, Jessica,
I live in Sandown, but I work in Methuen, 9-5. I travel to and from work via Hampstead St and then across 97 to the Shannon Rd area. Depending upon where you want to walk maybe I could meet up with you after work, at least until it gets too dark! I had a Laparascopic Sleeve Gastrectomy on 9/27/10. As of today I have lost 16 lbs since the morning of surgery. I also need a walking partner and I love the fall. I am not starting back to the gym for another two weeks, so maybe until then?

There is no need to look back unless you plan on going that way!

I'm sorry that you have been having such a struggle with everything. I wish I knew the magic fix to it all but I don't. To be honest I have been lying to myself too about everything, trying to slide through, doing things I swore I would never do ever again and I'm paying for it as well (the scale honestly is the most evil thing on the face of the earth!).
I know people always so go back to the basics, get out all the handouts and information from when we first joined the program to get refocused, but I think sometimes there is just so much other crap (ie life) going on that its not as easy as people seem to think it is (does hub and spoke really sole all?). Perhaps its the season change into the cold, dark and dreary that brings us back to the bad place... big sweaters cover all the issues really.
Again I'm sorry that I don't have any answers for you, but know that there is at least one person by your side struggling right along with you. I'm sure my big disappointment post will come next week after I meet with Dr. Gens. Sometimes I think I psych myself out bc my scale at home isn't the 'official' scale... but next week reality is going to kick my ass... hard!
Time to take out the frustration at dodge ball I guess.
Good Luck Bama... and if you need to anything you know where to find me!

Good luck tomorrow Sookie. You will do great! Let us know.
So I did a little better yesterday...still struggling though. Stayed pretty much on plan. Now I just have to work on portions!!!
So, Breakfast: 3/4 cup granola and 8 ounces of simply smart milk
Lunch: 1 cup homemade mac and cheese (with 75% fat free cheese) 10 grapes
Dinner: Low fat cheese ravioli in pasta sauce
Hum....think I need to get more veggies in. I will work on that. I have greek yogurt for a snack, and pure protein bars, but that is all I have. Now if people stop bringing stuff into work, I would be much better. I just need to say no!

Topic: Totally upset with myself!!!
Okay, so I got on the scale today.....guess I have been avoiding it not wanting to know what it said. I was very disappointed with myself when I saw the results of my relapse of behaviors that I have tried so hard to over come. So how does everyone else do it?? I was doing so well, then little by little, they crept back into my life. Now it is a daily struggle to get through each hour, minute and second of the day. I think the only thing that has actually helped is the fact that I have been exercising like a madwoman.
Anyway, I have "come clean" with myself, but still really struggling. Why is it that we work so hard in sabotaging ourselves?
AND WHY IS THERE A CUPCAKE AT THE BOTTOM OF MY SCREEN??????!!!!!! CHOCOLATE NO LESS!!!
