New Year's Resolutions (and a big reality slap up the side of the head)

Kix,
I am so with you.  Carbs since November and they keep increasing.  After months and months of feeling like I could go with never eating sweets, I'm now to the point of feeling like an addict.   I started tracking my food again yesterday and my resolution is to exercise at least x3/week.  I did start reading "Life is Hard Food is Easy".  I even went to my surgeon's bari support meeting last night. 

I truly wish all of of you the insight to figure out how to maintain your resolutions (wish myself that too!).  Seems like this gets harder as time goes as the pouch gives up control to the brain.

Happy New Years!

I need to join the team as well.  I've been struggling SERIUOSLY!!!!  Nibbling and grazing will definitely send us back to where we should never want to return.  I've paid for a gym membership for over a year and haven't been five times in 2008.  Whenever I'm stressed or bored, I eat.  I desire to lose these last 25-30 pounds in 2009.  When is the official start date?

A friend of mine gave me a 2 week trial membership to curves. I need to go and try it out!! I am going to set up something for next week. I am only a little over 3 months out. But I know I need to get my exercise back in gear. I need to tone up the areas that are losing fast because right now although I feel great, I cringe when I look at my floppy arms and my hanging belly....

Ugh. The attack of the Carb Monster has been around the world. Somehow he ended up on my plate. Ever since November, I've been getting lax. My bariatric doctor is not pleased with my results either. At my 6 month appt on Dec. 16 he said he felt like I should have lost 50 more pounds. Yeah. I haven't been doing the exericise. Just gotta get back to being consistent. Personal trainer came to the house yesterday and kicked my butt.  He's coming back tomorrow too. Gotta get the nibbling freak outta me.  Exerthon 6.0 starts tomorrow. I need about 1100 more minutes of exercise until  I can earn my Wii. I am joining the crew. We can do it! Here's to 2009.
