Tam180

Five months post op on June 7th. 97 lbs gone since Jan 1 pre op. I am struggling with carb snacking and with exercise motivation. I tore an ankle ligament and had to slack off exercising about two weeks ago and now i am struggling to get back at it. I still have 80 lbs to go and i am getting to that point where I am comfortable and usually would stop exercising dieting etc and do what i thought was "normal". It off course would result in a gain of everything i lost back plus some. This time I hope it does not happen. I am afraid it will. So I'm processing and thinking and trying to motivate myself for the next 80 lbs. thanks to everyone sharing experiences, i know i can do this for the long haul.

Just an update. Down to 254 so total of 90lbs since Jan 7 2013. I hope to be 180 ish this time next year.

My top weight was 341 and I am 5 foot 2.5. I am 257 right now after 5 1/2 months. I hope to get to about 180 in next year or so. I'm a 42 year old grandma who is raising my 3 yr old grandson alone so my routine includes dvd exercising and running around the garden. I'm not at a gym. Thank you all for sharing
