Weigh every morning.

Use My Fitness Pal.

Walk or exercise at at least five days a week.

Don't buy junk food and bring it home.

See a therapist about any serious food or stress issues.

Throw away all your big clothes.

Develop and invest in hobbies, avocations, passions that feed your soul and burn calories.

Stop postponing your life. Do it now.

Eat nutritious food. Your body deserves it.

I simply continued doing what I have been doing since surgery....and it improves all the time with discoveries of new and different healthy foods...

For me, it has always been about a new lifestyle, change in what and how I eat brought upon me by surgery....I have never had a diet mentalit, there is no such thing as maintenance, etc, etc.

5+ years now and I live every day just like any other day.

But that's the way it is for me, many people here have different attitudes towards this.

And the longer you are out from reaching goal... the more important this one thing has become for me... do NOT let denial sneak in. Whatever your method of accountability is - for me it is the scale - don't ignore it because you have over indulged. You start to forget that you ARE different than the people around you and you can't do what others do and maintain a healthy weight.

Its alot easier to stop the scale from creeping up than to have to relose. It is alot easier to relose 10# than 25 etc.....

      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?
