Hi, I just found this app last night. I really like how everyone is so supportive. I have been on my weight loss journey for 1 year now. My pre-op weight is supposed to be 310, I am currently at 323. I am struggling so bad. I have made some very big positive changes this year. I am now a vegetarian.I gave up Fast/Junk food. I stopped drinking soda. I however do not seem to be doing so well with the whole exercise thing. My body hurts so bad, I can walk 2 or 3 minutes and I can barely stand. My back and knees ache like crazy. I feel like I have stopped trying, I've lost my Ooomph ! Last dec. I actually made my pre-op weight, then I freaked and started thinking omg I can't eat this ever again, I have to do this and take that and I got overwhelmed and gained back 15 pounds in 3 weeks. Uggg I know...so bad. I just really need to meet some people who can relate and be supportive. I want to meet new friends to share, learn and grow with.

A little about me:

I'm 44, married 22 years, I have 1 daughter, who is on the Autism spectrum, she is 8. I am a stay at home mommy and we are homeschooling her. We eat 85% organic. We are vegetarians. I live in California by the ocean. I belong to Kaiser Permanente, which is where my surgery will be.

Have a great day !

Welcome to our group. You will fine the most amazing people here.

Welcome! This is such a great forum. You can really feel free to be yourself here!

I can relate I've been on the weight management rollercoaster too. Up & down. I'll get pumped about losing the weight, eating better & exercising but after a month or so I'm back eating what I know I shouldn't. Right now I'm a mandatory 3 month weight management program. I gained 5 pounds from my first to second weight loss program. I am back dieting like crazy so I hopefully can be down in my weight on my final weigh in! I so understand your struggle. Never feel alone!!

Hello. Welcome to the group!

I really felt the more I tried to diet, the more weight I gained. The medications I was taking for high blood pressure, migraines and fibryomyaliga was slowing down my metabolism. The junk food - pizza - kept me happy and energized. I also think stress plays a big role on the weight loss process. The surgery for me, took some of that stress away.

This is by far the best group I have ever joined. It is hard to discuss weight problems with people that do not have a weight problem. Thanks to all of you
