Thanks Solo_Dancer. I always hope that I can share something that can benefit others. We're all on this same boat trying to stay afloat. I've learned so much from other's experiences and tips from this site. I come back on often to read and catch up and contribute when I can.
You sound as if you're just uninspired at the moment, but you know how to make it work. For me, that's one of the difficult things to do is to just get started. I had to kick my a$$ in gear this week and make good on my promise to get in motion after procrastinating.... So I finally went with the ladies from work to a stretch and move class.....:-) That's all it was too, but it inspired me to take a walk the next day, and then to join a low impact Zumba class. I've felt so good this past week just for making the effort. Of course, I've seen no weight lose from it yet, but I know I will if I keep at it. So get your hiney up and out and just do a little something to get your inspiration going...
I've cut out my snacking too
That's tough!..............
Keep it moving!!........

What a great post dstgirl2000! I haven't been on OH in so long but decided to revisit today out of frustration from my recent weight gain. This weekend, I will be 7 years out and the weight is slowly creeping back on. Its sooo frustrating. A few weeks ago I had to break down and buy bigger sized clothes. Not fun at all. I can relate to so many things that you said. I definitely have a huge weakness with sweets and also snacking late at night. Seems like I'm the hungriest after 7 PM and all I want are sweet, sugary foods that we all know are no good. I know its wrong but I try to justify it by reminding myself how hard and often I work that I'm deserving of a little "emotional comfort". I've been somewhat embarrassed facing people that know about my WLS, but I suppose that's normal.
I'm going to follow your advice and really try to get back on the weight loss trail. Thanks so much for the detailed advice.
I just wanted to say Hello to old and new members!! I hope that 2013 has been great to you so far!
