After reading these web pages:

and

I wrote down my “So That” statements. I know some of are sort of shallow, but I’m trying to stay real about it :o:D
Marie.

• I want to lose 123 pounds SO THAT I feel lighter and more energetic when I do things such as play with my kids, exercise or just walk up the stair
• I want to lose 123 pounds SO THAT my knees won’t ache when I walk up stairs
• I want to lose 123 pounds SO THAT I will have more energy, stamina and sexual drive (for having awesome sex with my husband)

    I too am struggling. RNY surgery in April 2012. Lowest weight 175 from SW of 305. Now 5 years out I have put on 50 pounds! I hate myself for slipping. I know I need to get back to basics and eat the right things, not indulge so much at happy hour, those type of things......so now what??

    Hello, I found this group and am looking for connections. I had surgery in 2008 - lowest weight 199 (for 5 minutes) from 335. I stayed steady around 220 for many years, never got to a goal weight or even to stay under 200. In the past couple years, weight is up - a week ago at 249 - yikes! I have been logging my food now for almost a week in preparation for a dietitian appointment.
