Long time, no post! Almost 2 yrs post-op soon.. (x post to maint & pics)

I was just thinking about you the other day! Gosh, girl! You look amazing! Congrats. Hope you stick around!

Thanks! I lurk once in a while, but up at 5am, and should be in bed by 9:30 makes for less compy time.. Love my job, but the hours are long indeed. Plus add to that, I find myself biting my tongue more often than not now.. And the head stuff needed some more work, always needs more work ha! Sometimes things here can make that process harder.. at least for me. I will be around, and I do want to pop in a bit more.. miss you too, and been wishing you well from afar with the back stuff. 

Glad to see you are still popping by once in a while - youve done a great job :)

SO glad to see a post from you.  I always enjoyed your posts, I felt like we had such similar stats, and ended up in similar places, and handle this thing with similar approaches.  Totally echo everything you said - NOW is when the rubber meets the road.  Day by day, every day, making the right choices to stay in maintenance.  It's hard some days, it's easy other days, it's life every day.

You ROCK those 4's! 

First, great to "see" you and glad you are loving the new job. I remember how excited you were to land that!

Next, it's like you were inside my head. I'm sorta in the same place - learning the ropes of this maintaining business. It isn't always easy. Like you, my jeans are my guage. As long as I'm fitting into my 30 waist jeans all is well. When the get a little snug, it's time to rein it in! Your realness was a welcomed read tonight.

Looking forward to your 2 year out musings!

You look amazing.  Hey, and I totally understand taking a break from both posting and the scale.  Sometimes, we just need to step back and enjoy life and not obsess over others or the scale.  I am just beginning to realize the, after one year process.  My tool still works, it is just this sneaky little head of mine tries to find work arounds.  Silly me.

Enjoy the blessings and those size 4!

You've done so well! It IS harder now, for sure. I'll be two years on the 18th, so I'm a week behind you
I loved reading your post. It is very real and very true.

You look amazing.

(and I could have written this post myself. Take care of you! cuz that's the most important!)

You look awesome, Mama...woot woot!!
