Yeah I know what you mean, I wouldn't settle just cause I wasn't loosing. I decided on the bypass because when I was talking to my doctor he was trying to get me to do the sleeve, and he said if I don't loose all the weight and or it didn't work for me I could still go through and have the bypass? So at that point I was like why am I going to put myself through all that and so I just went straight for the final product and got the bypass. I am not going to go through one surgery and then have to have another one cause I couldn't loose all the weight on the first one? That was not my deal. I am very happy with my outcome, not everyone has the same outcome though, so just cause I did doesn't mean anything? I just really stuck to it and got to where I am now and I still stick to it. I have my little slips here and there but the sugar is out of my life forever. I don't mess around with that, I hate how it makes me feel and I don't want to deal with that?

Thanks for that insight. I knew that with the bypass that sugar was out forever for most bypass people and I had tortured myself with the Atkins plan long enough to realize that saying no to certain things is not up my alley. I have to be able to slip without it making me sick, I mean I still get sick with fish, bread and oil, but a finger down the throat seems to do it most times. When I was on Atkins, I gave up sugar and when I got off, I needed it like a crack head. That wasn't the route for me and the bypass wasn't and probably still isn't. I just wish I had the motivation to get all of my weight off like I started off with. I lack motivation. I haven't gained an ounce, but stuck at where I left off due to lack of motivation. I think it will come back when I have had enough, just not there yet and still going through a lot of employment stresses doesn't help either. Can't wait to get my head in the game again!

You will get there, just don't let yourself go back to where you were, cause then the motivation really won't be there? I have been lacking motivation lately too, I don't know why, I don't go to the gym anymore, I don't get out and walk I go home from work and just want to crawl into bed and stay there for the night? Im not depressed or atleast I don't feel it, I just am always tired lately? I don't know what is wrong with me and but I did just go to my thyroid doctor and she upped my meds and that is making me feel wicked hungry the past few days but that is cause the meds are making my matabolism ramp up? I am wondering if that is why I am tired too though? I don't know. Bypass isn't for everyone and the whole sugar thing I am actually happy about cause that was my biggest issue? So now I just don't even bother going near it. I can have a small small bite but nothing bigger?
