I replace overeating right now with crocheting a lap afghan. I only know one stitch, but it keeps my hands busy doing something instead of eating.

AND, I want to buy that Rosetta Stone kit to learn Spanish!

wished I lived near you so you could teach me how to knit and then we could learn Spanish together, I know enough to get into trouble...lol. I've had 3 yrs of it but do not speak it fluently, wish I could.

I LOVE sewing! Both my mom and grandma sewed. I didn't take advantage of their knowledge while they were here on this earth, but I have a dear friend who has taught me to quilt and sew. One thing that my Mother did teach me is that I can do whatever I put my mind to!

I've started reading again, I have over thirty unread books I kept buying. I do seem to be spending more time cooking healthy meals for the family, have always loved cooking. I now go out nearly everyday whereas before I started loosing weight I'd only go out to take kids to school or drive them around to their sports after school. I'm spending time in the garden again. At night time I play an online game called dungeons and dragons, lol, keeps me busy and not thinking about snacking. I'm also planning on repainting my kitchen, family room and maybe the kids bedrooms, we shall see how that goes.

Just loving life again. It's like I've rediscovered the real me again. I'm constantly on the go and don't sit down till about 8 pm these days and no longer need nanna naps in the afternoons!

Oh and I've pulled out my craft box with my half made bears.

It's going to be hard for me since I am in the process of opening a small cafe with my brother but I know I can't taste every single thing I cook!

Other than that I have replaced over eating with reading, kids activities, chewing gum and shopping for random things ;).

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
