back from the dead?

Good afternoon fellow OH'ers

 

It has been quite some time since i posted on these forums.  I even went as far as to delete my account.  Things were going great for a while but lately things have been slowly falling apart for me.  I'm eating like crap again.  im neglecting my vitamin and exercise regimens.  Basically spitting in the face of everything i've achieved and everyone who supported me throughout this whole ordeal.

 

I realize that i cannot do this by myself and i need to make myself accountable through those who are going through the same things i am.  I hope those i connected with that are still here can welcome me back and we can start over fresh.

 

so yeah.  Hi

Welcome back Myke.  Those demons have a way of rearing their ugly head.  Kudos to you for having the self awareness to realize it and admit it.  Support is the best way to get over this hurdle.  Today is a new day.  I too find myself slipping back into old habits and need a kick in the a$$ once and a while to get back on track. 

 

So on that note, turn around, brace yourself {boot coming your way} .  There consider yourself kicked....lol.

 

Hope you have a great day,

 

Kristie

thanks Kristie.

 

sadly i felt the kick more then before.  a lot less padding now. LOL

Welcome back. I hope you get the support here you need. We all have our demons we are fitting to stay fit and healthy in our new bodies

Welcome back, this is a great support group.

Welcome back to the fold.

Hi,

 

I'm in the same boat. I've been trying to read the forums and participate more often. I also made an appt at the clinic to see the dietician and behaviorist.

Wish I had the answers but you're not alone.

 

You guys and gals are awesome. I love support you all give one another. That's all. Michelle

I think of myself as being addicted to food - like an alcoholic.  But an alcoholic can go to AA, and while it's hard, can give up alcohol completely.  I have faced the fact that I love to eat and use food to sooth emotions (good, bad, ugly, happy, sad....)  however, I won't eat if I feel sick, so I feel that I need this surgery will finally give me the tools that I need.  I'm really hoping it does.  I have the fear that it won't work for me because I won't be diligent and follow all the rules............that's where support comes in.  You are human, and will make mistakes.  You've done the hard thing - saying it out loud.  Take advantage of all the support that's out there!  We are all here to help each other!

7+ years out and I know what it is like to struggle.  Welcome back!!
