Welcome back Trisha. It's always nice to have more people to contribute to this message board, it tends to get pretty quiet. I guess not too many people interested in non surgical weight loss. Good luck with your renewed efforts.

I'm in the process of changing my diet, relationship with food and my lifestyle. I'm in training for maintaining.

Topic: hello

Hello everyone my name is Trisha. I used to be on here as a regular, but some things had happened in my life and I have not been on in almost a year wow cant believe its been that long. I recognize a couple of lifers that are still around lol. I decided to take the time and see where I was mentally and what was best for me. I have 3 young children 6,4, and 2....so I need to find structure and time for me, and since my husband and I decided we were not having anymore children now is a great time to start focusing on ME...... I thought WLS was someting I wanted to do but things happened (loooong story) and I think everything is supposed to work out the way it is because I didnt get the surgery and I feel like I am in a better place and able to focus better. I did awesome last time on atkins and after purchasing and reading all Atkins new diet revolution book I am ready to get back on board.

anyway enough with my babbling on I just wanted to say hello and that I plan I being around for a while.

Hello,

I exercised this morning for 32 min because i had to do something since I was too late getting up to go to the gym. I am proud of exercise average. Sticking to my 5 days or more a week average.

Topic: 1st milestone reached this year.

I am finally on my way everyone.

I have not gained any more weight since March and reconnecting here on OH.com. I am down 16 pounds and that brings me back to my January 2010 weight. So I have reached one milestone already this year.

I have lost the 16 pounds I gained in 2010. I am determined to make 2010 a year I am not going to gain. The last 3 years my weight has been sliding up and I promise you and myself that 2010 will not be a gain year for me.

Topic: RE: feeling a lil discouraged

Kim ~You are a much nicer person then I am for tolerating her nonsense, or your friends for that matter. I would consider making a complaint about the pushy gym lady. If I had been in your shoes I would not have been able to hold my tongue. I would have told her in a nice way to basically go stuff it. Something like 'While I do really appreciate your advice, I will continue what feels right for me. but thank you and have a good day.' and walked off/out. You don't pay to use the gym to be harassed by the staff. While they may be well intentioned, unless they have been where you are physically, [or possibly had a close family member/close friend in a similar position] they will never understand that an extra 10-30 seconds on the treadmill might literally be you pushing yourself past your own breaking point at this point in time.Keep on doing you, girl. Do what you can, when you can do it. Don't let anyone make you feel bad because they feel you should be doing more when you know your not at that point yet. Like you said, 10 minutes in motion, is better then 10 minutes on the couch. It's your body. You know your own limitations better then anyone else. In time you will be able to go longer on the treadmill. And I give you a lot of credit for being almost 400lbs and getting on a treadmill. I am almost 400, too and there is no way I would get on one now. I have seen to many people face pant on them. Not happening...lolWhen I have wanted to eat for not hungry reasons lately, I have hoped on here and read some of the posts and it has helped. I also drink a lot of water. **Hugs** Hope it gets better for you soon!!
