I havent been here for a while

[BairwithMe 144]

HI all. I have not been here for a while. I had surgery the end of October . Had a sleeve done. I started at 247 and am now at 191. I had hoped I would be down more. But I also had surgery to have a tumor removed off of my arm. I also had pneumonia. Not to use those things as an excuse but I did have some set backs. I am looking forward now to getting back in the gym and getting more exercise in. I am doing good with food. Sticking to Proteins and avoiding Snacks. Snacks were my downfall. I have an office job so I really have to make myself move when I am off work so that I get my exercise in. Wanted to say hi and I look forward to being more active on the board. You all give me lots of encouragement and great ideas!! I made this before and after pic today. You guys/gals should do this -it helps me when I get discouraged or have a set back. We have to keep on keeping on!! This surgery was a blessing. I aint ready to stop my progress just yet. Hugs to you all!!

You look great and are doing wonderful. That's an awesome loss so far! I was sleeved 11/16 so we aren't far apart.

Welcome back to the BP!
