My Goal

Hello my AMOS Family ~Hugs~ Well I got my surgeon goal, it is 150 lbs so I am only 15 lbs from his goal but 40 lbs from mine Getting closer but still a ways away from my goal.. Well just feeling like I will make it to his goal but mine is going to be a struggle.... Just trying to deal with the eating so I can get there and STAY! Well thanks for listening.... Debra P

Hi Debra, Just a thought: Maybe you might consider getting to your surgeon's goal (or somewhere between yours and his that's more easily attainable) and maintaining for a while....just enjoy the fruits of your labor...and then if you are up for it at a further time, you can get back to losing..... In any event, take stock in what you've already accomplished, not just weight wise, but in all the other ways too...You done good. Hugs, Amy

Amy, Sounds like a good idea hun.... ~Hugs~ Thanks... You know I meantioned that f/f refried beans on the other post? Well i did not get ANY gas from them, not sure why but it never caused me any gas and had SO MUCH at the beginning WOW.....I was living on Gas-X.. just FYI... Thanks as always hun.... Debra P

GOOD DEAL!!!

Lisa, thanks hun.... ~hugs~ Debra P

HEY DEB! thats soo cool now the surgeons goal will be a mini goal to work towards first! THATs what im doing getting to his first which for me the surgeon felt 165...then im going for more ...to help protect me from that natural regain over the first 3 years that i hear about. I feel the extra would put me were i am now which isnt horrible should i slowly creep up slightly till i maintain for life. I think first meet the surgeons and then like AMY said make the next goal between his and yours! AND try not to get over whelmed with the entire amount left. FOR me im also going by the size clothes im getting into.....and if im in stretch 8 and 9 i cant imagine much smaller sizes then this. HUGS lisa

Lisa, Hun you are right and thank you so much for betting so supportive... People like you sure make this place as good as it is... Thanks again ~Hugs~ Debra P

Hi Debra, I understand how you feel --my goal is lower than my surgeons' goal also--But I realize also that I have to consider what is most healthy for me--you will reach your goal--you are so determined --that you deserve to reach it. BUT don't make yourself crazt over it You have the rest of your life to be careful and to eat in a new way--so take it easy on yourself! be Blessed, Maroan S.C. 242.4/163.8/goal125-130???

Marian, Thanks hun for your support ~hugs~ I will try to get someplace between these both and rethink my goals.... Just kind of scary to see that I am almost at goal now (surgeons) because I am so used to being on a "diet" or watching what I am eating closely...now stopping that will be a struggle as well but we are always learning so that is good. Thanks again hun ~Hugs~ Debra P
