back to workout and looking for support group close to home

Mar 19, 2013

well  I have been really slacking on working out.  I just noticed that I am really gaining weight fast....I can tell my energy level is dropping and those old back problems are here again...........I don't  know what happen to my exercise motivation .  Every day I started my day off with some type of workout...I just lost the spirit. but the good thing is that I loved doing the routines of walking and the video so I just need to clear my head before I am back at 300 lbs again.   I am not all into the support groups  because of the distance i have to travel.  Does anyone know if they still meet in jackson tn... 

I guess not going back to the clinic hasn't helped at all.  it's been 3 years since my last visit to my surgeon office....does anyone else just go to their regular doctor for check up?  if so does your surgeon approve?   .  nashville is a long drive for me for a 10 min exam but i do need test done

5 years

Feb 25, 2013

Hello to everyone   Iam back online  just checking things out...... I have been busy with just living life some good but mostly not so good.  I am  almost  five years out from my surgery.  I never really set a goal weight but my lowest was 168 lbs.  I have  been on the rollercoaster of  up and down 15 to 20 pounds.  Right now iam  up 20 and dont seem to be able to lose any.  My problem is liquid calories I still can't eat large portion so i get my feed on iced coffee, frappes and those types of things  it's been hell since McDonalds has the cheaper products rather than hitting up starbuck 4 dollar verses 2 bucks and a drive thru makes it hard to pass up.  I think iam at my point of not losing anymore  I have wondering about looking into the plastic surgery option because I know  there has to be about  20 lbs just hanging( I just hate seeing that).   I am not going to stress on having the excessed removed cause insurance will not cover it and I cant pay anymore out of pocket just the expense from getting the weight loss surgery was to much....  I guess I need to love myself as I am  and be thankful for what i have acheived.....lost  140 lbs. not bad

 

best wishes to everyone!!!

my goal

Jul 14, 2009

I have set my goal weight to  be between 150-140.  I am hoping to make this goal... today iam weighing in  171.  things are moving slow.  I haven't been as active as I should and have had a few hangup....A box of Crunch and munch slowed me down a bit.  but iam trying to move on and complete what  i have started... I wish all you much success in your weight loss.

hey to everyone

Apr 30, 2009

Iam was just  sitting here thinking back on the years I spent  reviewing this website and dreaming of the day that I would have WLS and finally get my life together.  Well  4 years later I am here  and trying to stick with the program.  I have went from 308 lbs to 194 since  September 2008 to now April 09.  I am very proud of the weight loss and feel very different.  But I am have to admit I am having some trouble with letting go and still getting close to people.  I can't seem to let go of old clothes. I still wear my bagging jeans and oversize shirts which don't flatter my look at all.   One of my goals was to be able to put up my before and after photo on this site .I still look at those  and find them so inspiring and amazing.   So even with most of my weight gone  I am still working on the mind thing.  Because I will have to admit when people tell me that " Oh girl you look so good"  I am was thinking well at one point in my life I was even smaller  I think about  180 was my early days weight and No One ever made that comment on I  looked good then.  It was always you need to lose some pounds.   but Iam still working on myself and I hope all you are having much success on your weight loss.  
God Bless you all.........  I am going to try to remain Positive.. hope you do too..
