The definition of failure is lack of trying. None of here can ever consider ourselves failures based on that definition. :wink:

Morning all!!! Hope everyone is having a good week and feeling strong and motivated!! :heart:

Been doing well the last week with no binges, although I did allow myself ice cream as a treat on days when I had substantial exercise -- but I worked into my plan as opposed to just eating it no matter what. :) I've told people at work that I'm officially "on the wagon" and they've been primarily supportive as to not…

Cool! Let us know how it turns out! :)

WOW, Laura, you're an inspiration -- maintaining 200 lbs. is amazing!! Glad to make your acquaintance!! :)

Congrats Michelle and welcome to our little group!! :)

Thanks a lot Mollie!! It's sure great to see you on here and I'm thankful that this thread and all these wonderful people like you exist!! :)

Same for my WLS center -- once a month is not enough! However, we really only have a handful of folks in there who have not been successful. Everyone else has changed their lives and are truly walking miracles. :)

Thank you! I couldn't agree more. I definitely need the support and the tracking to stay successful. I'm really trying to focus on those things right now and take each step at a time to real things back in. :)

Reporting in: DAY 2 completed "clean." YAY!!! :drinker: Keys to success for me are: 1) Bringing my food to work; 2) Planning/tracking; 3) Posting on support threads; 4) Taking one "nutritional opportunity" at a time.

Good morning all!! Although I've been on my weight loss journey since September 2010, I really consider yesterday DAY 1 in starting over with trying to eat clean. I'm happy to say that yesterday was a victory and I hope to build on it today for another clean and physically active day. Starting over is hard, but I know with…

Hello! I am new to this thread but have been on my (latest) weight loss journey since September 2010 when I had sleeve surgery. I am maintaining about 75 lbs. lost, but I struggle with binge eating and need the support of others to stay on track. I'm a full-time (and then some) working married mom of 5 boys and several…

Hi everyone!! It's been a long time since I've been on the threads ... I just had to cut something out during these last very busy and frustrating months. However, I have found that I have missed all of you, I NEED all of your support, and I'm not doing very well on my own. So, today I'm starting over (again), trying to…
