Trying to focus and motivate myself!

I am going to be 50 in November. I had bariatric surgery 2 years ago, this month. I feel much healthier than I did before the surgery and it was the best decision that I have made in my life. However; as time goes by and I am capable of eating more than before and I need to use my own self-control, I see myself struggling. I have gained back 10lbs (I lost 70) and I need to hold myself accountable and get on track. I don't go to the gym enough (I always find an excuse not to go). As the weather gets better, I feel more motivated to exercise. I need to get a handle on my "eating my feelings". I'm looking to connect with people who would want us to motivate each other. I will go slow and enjoy the journey. I am making lifetime changes.
