    Anyone in Missouri?

    Hi, glad you are doing so great... I started at 360 and am now 210. Down 150lbs. Had surgery 7/11/2014. I to would like to get to 150. After being so focused since Jan of 2014 I have found that my diligence is definitely wavering. I have been maintaining this weight for the last 3-4 months. The problem is that even though I haven't met my personal goal I have far exceeded my surgeons and I have achieved many of the things that I wanted that have nothing to do with the scale. So I often waver mentally between feeling like I have failed because I haven't reached my goal and being happy with where I am at... Which is more active, participating in life, happier and let's not forget about the shopping , which I enjoy. While I haven't been heavy my entire life I haven't been this weight since I had my first son and he's 17.
