Have lost it all and keeping it off
Jan 31, 2008
Its been 4 years since I made the best decision. I went from 305 to 150 and am happy where I am at in size. I am 5'7 and am at a size 10. The only issue is now trying to keep my ulcer under control by watching what I eat. That will come in time just like everything else.
Progress took a turn so I am working on getting back to basics

Ok all my fellow RNY's - i need a little cheerleading squad to get me re motivated. i am 3 years out (RNY 12/29/03) and as of Oct 06 was down from 300 to 180 and only had those last 20 to go to reach my personal goal weight (i am 5'7 and thick boned/muscles)... ANYWAY, had a big hiccup in October, went through a bit of depression, drank way too much and i think i let pasta and sandwiches get the better of me and as of today i have GAINED 20 POUNDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so not only am i going in the wrong way, I am now needing to shed 40 pounds before i go on my big 40th b-day trip at the end of May!!!! SO - I am asking for help to get back on track. PLEASE any diet tips, exersise tips, quick restart plans out there I need them. I am starting to beat myself up and the funny thing is... ALL my friends say i look like I am either the same or have lost weight (which by the way my pants are fitting, i KNOW is not true). I believe this was the best thing I have ever done for myself, and was actually ok with only being 20lbs overweight (as opposed to 140lbs over in '03). so now that a short story is long - throw me some suggestions that are good and healthy quick start plans to get me to be a loser again :-D
