Thanks for the kind words everyone. I still find it hard to accept complements on the weight loss because I don't want to get complacent ever. Nick Saban once said about success, "that's the paradox success, once you stop to enjoy it, you stop having it." I know that eventually I will get to my GW, but I don't want to let myself slack off until I reach it. I need to learn to accept others' complements, but not let myself get comfortable until I reach my GW. Thank you all again for the kind words and encouragement.0

Realized that I had an addiction issue. I had replaced God in my heart with food and decided to reverse the order. I still need renewing daily, but I use MFP to track my exercise and calories. I made up my mind that I was going to do this and I have made progress but I am not at my goal yet. You just have to make it a complete lifestyle change. For so long I thought diets were temporary and that one I lost the weight, I could go back to eating what I wanted. I still eat things I want, just not in the amount. I eat healthy but if I'm craving a cheeseburger, I'll have one. Just not a cheeseburger, large fries and large soft drink, and then do it again the next day. Its about sticking with a lifestyle that you can live with. I would strongly consider another route before surgery, i know it can be hopeless, but trust me, I am proof that anyone can do it. You have to be willing to put in the work and effort to see the results, there is no magic bullet. From what I understand most surgeries aren't successful in the long run. I'm not trying to discourage you, but I'm encouraging you to make sure that this is the route you want to take. Hope this helps.0 -
