    blackfalls got a reaction from Jerzygurl for a blog entry, 100% of people with BMI >30 who lose weight with diet and exercise gain it back and more within 3 years.   
    The below quote is from here.
     
     
    Welp. That's depressing. And very accurate for me.
     
    My timeline (that I can remember)
     
    2003 - 200 lbs, graduated high school tried Jenny Craig, Weight Watcher's, Herbal Magic, physician-supervised weight loss
    2004 - 230 lbs, freshman "15"
    2006 - 200 lbs with diet/exercise concurrent with first serious relationship
    2006 - 230 lbs, 3 months after end of first serious relationship
    2007 - 250 lbs
    2008 - 220 lbs with diet and exercise, then started a grueling intensive 3 year program
    2009 - 250 lbs
    2011 - 275 lbs, graduated from said program, then couldn't find a job for 4 months, did food and retail therapy
    2012 - 235 lbs, with personal trainer costing $4000 with diet/exercise
    2013 - 285 lbs, highest weight ever at pre-op for vertical gastric sleeve surgery, found out 2 weeks before surgery I am hypothyroid.
     
    Time to put an end to this horrific yo-yo dieting.
     
    It reinforces in my mind that I'm doing the right thing by having this surgery. No turning back now.
