My main reason for having WLS was to get healthy so I could enjoy my young children and husband and set a good example to them.
I always had fears (I was at 365# my highest) of dying from some weight related illness and I just had had enough and wanted to do something about it.
I excersize 5-days a week and feel GREAT. I would like to reach my goal of 180#...but am struggling with that currently....but I will keep working toward that.

One of my goals was to feel healthy enough to play softball again. I love softball/baseball, and played a lot when I was younger. (I played catcher, at that. When I decided to have WLS, if I crouched down to catch, I'd never get up again! lol) I don't know if I will ever play in an organized team, but I'd like to!! Or, at the very least, be able to play with my kids!
But, of course, my ultimate goal was simply to be healthy, live my life to the fullest, and live to see my children grow up and their children grow up.

I'm posting early as I'll be out of town for a while.
There is just so much negativity in the world, in our communities and in our individual lives. So, let's concentrate on the positive!
When you decided to have WLS what goal did you have in mind? Was it a number on the scale, was it a health-related issue, was it a particular item of clothing, etc.? And did you achieve that goal? If you did, have you replaced that goal with a new one? I think setting mini, achievable goals throughout life helps keep us positive and focused.
My goal was to get off the CPAP, and frankly to weigh 160. I have achieved both, plus some. I then set a goal to be off all meds. Again, achieved. Then to get to 140. Again, achieved. Now my goal is to maintain and not drop below 130, for the most part I'm doing that. So, now I want to increase my exercising....this one I'm not doing as well as I'd like to do, but I keep plugging away at it.

I'm far enough out that I can pretty much find some thing I can eat, or I just eat a tiny amount of something I really shouldn't eat. I don't do that often, so I don't really worry about it. I used to carry food with me, canned meat, jerky, etc. The only food I carry with me now is a granola bar in case my blood sugar drops low. There have been times when I wish I'd brought something because the food at church, or wherever was a hot dish or pasta dish.

Early out, I tried to carry beef jerky and water everywhere I went... now, I usually have some peanuts with me, just in case.... but I can eat almost anything now, (just because I can, doesn't mean I should...) so I'm not so obsessed with having provisions along for the ride...
On Sunday, my boyfriend and I went to visit a friend (and client) of his "for a couple of hours" and ended up being there all day long... I hadn't eaten breakfast, and Curt told me we'd go out to lunch afterward.... well, about 1:00 p.m., his friend offered us tea and banana cream pie - which I gladly ate, since I was STARVING!!! Then, about 4:00, offered Halloween candy, which I refused.... by 6:00 p.m., I thought I was going to pass out - I was ready to borrow a car and go to Wendy's!!! Curt got stuck working with them on some business, and I was absolutely ready to faint... I quietly told Curt I needed to eat, and he said we'd be going soon... but then his friend took off and came back with Subway sandwiches... and again, I ate it without a second thought! So Sunday was bad, and along with a few other bad days last week, I gained five pounds!! Serves me right!!!
