I completely lost my way. Where to start

Dropwt4life: Everything you said I already know. I just needed to here it from others. Thank Man. And thanks for all the wonderful rapid responses I received from everyone. I had forgotten how essential the BariatricPal community is. [emoji1531][emoji1531][emoji1531]

I just had a revelation that I have fallen back to pre-surgery old/bad habits like: eating out in the car and throwing the evidence away so I don’t feel guilty. I have gained 40 lbs back from my lowest weight and tried to justify that by saying its all muscle weight since I weight train 4 days a week. Any advice or words of encouragement are welcome I’M STRUGGLING!

Up your water intake and walk walk walk.

I think I know why, but I'd like to know your thoughts After a while the excitement fades and then you're left to deal with the reality! Meaning the weight doesn't fall as easily or bad eating habits start to creep back in and your goal or manageable weight target gets further away. I wanted to be about 230 lbs now, but it didn't happen. I'm still proud of how I've changed my life for the better; however, I WANT IT ALL.

Thanks I have to admit I have mixed feelings about today marking the two years since surgery.

Well, I just hit my 2 year surgery anniversary! WOW! I thought I would be 200 lbs, but I weigh in at (wait for it) 262 lbs. My highest weight was 462 lowest point was September of 2013 243. This past year I've added 20+ lbs of muscle which I'm really happy with. Now I just have refocus on the cardio which is shall we say challenging.

I awoke this morning to a Facebook notification of a post from 6 years ago (evidently this is a new feature that Facebook has) of a pic I had posted. I literally do not remember myself looking that way. Here is the pic and a current one as well

I'm willing to give it a go.

I've experienced this issue as well.

This past week has been really stressful and I Find myself nibbling more often. I still weight train 5 days a week, but I seem to have lost my enthusiasm for cardio, walking. Need some Bariatricpal Advice and support!

You would think being 18 months post-op I would have learned not to take those last few bite. But no and I suffer for at least 30 min.
