Has anyone reached their goal weight despite gaining a couple pounds here or there, or becoming side-tracked at some point in their journey? Basically I'm interested to hear about people who didn't give up despite their failures and what not.

Thanks :}

I would love to hear more about this too..... I gained a pound and I'm freaking out

2 years out and in the last month I have gained about 3 pounds. Part of it is eating crap for the holidays and par tof it is eating more out of sheer boredom. With the early nightfall and cold weather I cannot ride my bike and my job is very, very slow now and I have many hours with little to do. We have NO budget and NO projects.

Once better weather and daylight return I should ramp up my biking and hopefully work will pick up and I can lose the few extra pounds. While I hate it and really want to get rid of them having 3 or 5 pound extra is a far cry from the nearly 200 pounds I carried pre-op.
