Welcome to the group Brock! You chose the best group to join...lots of great people! Hope to learn more about you in the coming days/weeks. I started recovering at 315, started posting here after my two procedures last October. Been struggling a bit lately but I'm fighting my way back. Right now I'm at 288. I was at 279 so…

I will get back on plan doing what i need to do to get there. I just can't take "breaks" because I will never get back on plan. So no more breaks for me..it will be hard but I…

I think this is so much more than just a plateau. I feel so lost and on my own. I am frustrated for sure but I don't think it is all about the plateau. I have to start figuring out why I have been overweight my entire life. Sure, some of it may be genetics, some of it may be because I still eat most of the same foods I…

I need to keep clawing and scratching my way back. I feel like I'm in this dark place. I don't want to gain back everything I have lost but I have stopped my journey in it's tracks and can't get it started again. I just don't know what to do or how to get back on track. I have tried and tried...and nothing is helping. I…

Get back on plan. Had a hard week last week...and just haven't been able to bounce back. Guess when I'm ready I will.

I haven't been able to get off the sugar...i drink a lot of sweet tea. I drank only water for a while but went right back to the sweet tea. The soda I can do without. Once in a while I will have one with my meal but I really don't care for it anymore. At least that's one good thing that has come out of my "journey"....

Welcome! You will love this group.....great bunch of people!

I still haven't made up my mind so I may just do a better job of watching what I eat. I am hoping for a loss this week but if I don't have a loss it will not stop me from keeping on. I can't give up, I have come too far for that now. I just need to do what I need to do to get back on plan. I will get there...

I also work for one of the largest insurance companies and yes, the insurance stinks there as well. You would think they would give you killer insurance since you are doing the job that brings in money. Nope, not happening. I still love my job and my training is going great. Starting next week for 2 weeks we will be on our…

I think I'm going to have to journal again. I stopped doing that about a month ago. Also measuring everything out…

I'm going to see a nutritionist outside of work because the one at work hasn't been doing all that much to help me. He is so focused on fruits and vegetables and that's all he talks about. I need someone who is going to give me information on certain foods and help me decide what's best for me and the situation I have…

My week was not good food-wise but for some reason with me, the last week of the month stinks! I gain every time! I don't get it, but it is what it is I guess. I thought it might be because of my training and being a little stressed. I don't believe that's it. I can't even begin to figure it out. I am just going to have to…

I am in Phoenix, Az

I lose it but I don't know why! I just stop doing what I was doing all month long. Happened last…

This week so far has been difficult for me. I haven't been keeping track of my eating very well. I have been slipping back into old habits. I was able to stop it last time by going to the military diet but I don't want to go to those extremes every time I get the urge to go off my plan. This is making me crazy! I can't…

Hello Cari! Welcome to the group. As mentioned above by Deem114, this group is very supportive. Feel free to add me as a friend if you wish..

I thought about the surgery myself but decided against it. One friend of mine almost died on the table. That's very scary! I have lost 30 pounds since November, which is kinda slow, but it's still losing. I have issues with my ankles which keeps me from doing a lot of walking or dvd's. I am waiting for a referral to a…

This week has been very stressful for me. Playing catch up in the training class is not what I had in mind when I showed up for work last Friday but I am in dire need of a change. I am behind but I will get caught up. Will just take me some time. I have not been doing a very good job with my journey but i am so tuned in to…

Being in training at work has really thrown me off. I apparently cannot concentrate on more than one thing at a time. But…

My scale at home has me 5 pounds heavier than my doctors scale. I am filly dressed with shoes and all. How's that for a stupid scale?

I see a nurse practitioner and I LOVE, LOVE LOVE her. I will stay right where I am. She is so supportive she offered to walk with me to help keep me motivated. I don't really need help right now in that department, but it's the first time any doctor, NP, Anyone in that field has offered to exercise with me. I love that! I…

I hope I didn't overdo it. I have not been able to exercise much so when I felt good today, I took advantage of it. I will know tomorrow...

My favorite food...mexican food. Can't eat it much anymore. Not since my surgery. Really crave it...like...a LOT! lol

HLaR79...yes it was very restrictive but it worked. I am back on track which is what I needed. Everything else I tried didn't work. I was reverting back to old habits and I have worked too hard to let that happen....so yeah I'm happy with the results. Now if I could just get my ankles to work with me lol.
