WOOT WOOT!!! GO US!!! We are rocking!!!

Congrats on the date!!! Welcome to the site. I am still pre-op and learning a great deal of information! Welcome! Sannah

Hello! Thank you for taking time to share this information with me. I first wanted to say congrats on your success, especially despite your back and thyroid challenges!! I have a digital scale that I used to measure food. I have had it for 4-6 years. I am curious when these kind of items need replaced. I think I should do some research on this. I have previously used MFP. I LOVE IT! My husband and I logged together and both lost a little weight doing this. I fell off the band wagon and I should get back on. My husband was my only 'friend' on MFP and maybe I needed more. We shared our food logs to hold each other accountable. Maybe I can find some buddies from this forum and add them to MFP's. I am glad that you brought up the eating out aspect. My husband and our friends really like to eat out and even now this causes trouble for me. I, like you, feel overwhelmed with the choices at most restaurants. Perhaps I should tell my husband what I plan to eat prior to going out, so he can help me be accountable. I will check out my local community center! Good thinking. I am not a fan of the meat market style gyms! Yuck! No thanks! I drive by a 24 hour fitness and LA fitness almost daily. I have been to 24hour fitness before and I was not comfortable. I am not sure about LA Fitness- maybe check it out based on location. For years I went to the local community center. However, we just moved and I am still learning a lot about my new area. I hope that you have a good evening! Sannah

Hey! Thanks for the post! While I see how this could easily be a con because I have lived it. I have to say I hope I am cold all the time like my fit/skinny friends. Currently I am always hot and this is not fun! Our friends always want the heat turned up or to sit outside in the sun! Sorry, but being morbidly obese and sitting in the heat is just NOT fun! Rather miserable actually!

Cheers to a job well done!! I so know that machine you speak of!!! How exciting! Sannah
