Thank you so much for writing this article. I have spent the better part of the year in my regain glasses. It is high time that I took them off and put on my 'just for today" glasses.

You are a wonderful writer and your inspiration, I hope, will help me to do things right!!

I can't tell you how much this made my day! Thank you so much for the kind words. I think you wrote some very wise words there!

Thank you so much. I needed to read this. I've not been on this site in a long time. I lost my husband and a brother to cancer in the last 16 months. I lost a total of 130 pounds and have put back on 35. I had sleeve surgery May of 2012. I remember those honeymoon glasses. Oh how I loved them. Then things started to fall down around me. My husband diagnosed with cancer and died 6 months later. Then my brother 13 months after that. Life is hard but I don't want to go back to 300 pounds.

I never thought about things the way you are describing. You have given me hope and a new outlook. So thank you so much. I just have to figure out how to start eating again. I gained this weight by drinking "frappes". I don't eat much even to keep me nourished but the caffeine and sugar in the frappes keep me "up"... I use them for comfort and they are loaded with calories. I want to get back on track. I hope by reading this it can turn me around.

Blessings,

You have been through so much more than most of us. Bless your heart. If you found some hope, I've done my job. I would like to suggest another blog post for you. It's here.

Sugar is the most addictive substance known to man. Here's one of my graphics from my Bariatric Girl Facebook page.

If this doesn't turn you around please let me know. You CAN do this!

Here's another post about someone who turned around a 70 lb gain.
