Hello! I'm Erin...and this is my first week on MFP. I really like the app and I'm hoping it can be helpful to me as I go through my journey to a healthier me.

I had a roux en Y about 7 yrs ago and have gained back about 100 lbs...putting me at about 50 lbs lighter than when I initially had the surgery. I am considering having a revision so the dr can tighten my 'pouch' but, until then, I need to do this for me and prove to myself that I can lose weight...and that having a revision will just help me even further along in my battle.

I would love to make some friends on here...maybe meet some people who are like-minded and willing to go the distance with me.

This time around, I am way more serious. This time around I'm more positive and I'm going to make this work for me!
