  2. That is the exact reason why I'm back on here after a year or more. I yoyo now between 182 to 189. I eat most of the time making good choices, but lately, I find that chocolate and candy are in my hands more than ever. Work was very hectic and didn't allow me to exercise like I was. I was working 6-7 days a week, 12 hours days. Now that work is "normal" again I need to get back to basics. I need help though. I will make a commitment to check this site and reconnect every day. I'd love to be a buddy to you, if you'd like. We could support each other.

  5. I find myself like you two. I've done a decent job but, I find that my old eating habits are creeping back in. too want to start over. Good luck in your journeys.

  7. I feel that way about soda. There are some days I could go for a big cold glass of Pepsi

  23. Today I went into American Eagle to buy some jeans for my son. While in the store I saw a shirt that I thought was cute so I picked up the XL to try it on....It was too big. I fit into a LARGE!!! I don't remember the last time I fit into a large. When I started my journey I was in a 2x top (and it was tight). YEAH!
  24. I have a very hard time with both. If I try to eat them they come back up, so I haven't eat either of them in a long time.
  25. I'm 16 months out and have lost 74 pounds. I'd like to lose between 32 and 42 more. I'd like to hit my goal by December which will be my 2 year anniversary. I'd like to know how long it took everyone to hit your goal weight.
  26. I hear all of you. I'm 186 and everyone tells me I look awsome and are really starting to tell me how much I've lost and how "skinny" I look. I've lost 70 but when I look in the mirror I still think I'm huge. I had started to excerise to tone up, then had a hysterectomy so I've been "off" for a few weeks I know in that I'm losing weight and I'm smaller but my head is still playing games with me. I still look in the plus size for clothes, yet today I tried tops on and could wear xl. It's a terrible game our minds play with us.
  27. Great job! Keep up the great work!
  28. my email is ritascot@twcny.rr.com I'm 42 but would be interested in checking in daily with people. I do use this site often, but would love the extra support. I too have been struggling. I've been bouncing up and down with the same 4 pounds for 2 months now. I've been banded since 12/30/11 and as of today am down 65.
  29. I was banded December 30, 2011. I'm down 67 pounds. I'm wondering how my fellow December 2011 bandsters are doing.
  30. For whatever reason this has been an issue for me lately. I've been banded 14 months and I'd say in the last month and a half this has been a problem.
