Okay, here's the deal. I had gastric bypass surgery in Sept. 2003 and went from 316 lbs to 170 lbs. Life was great. After gaining pregnancy weight and then learning both of my babies were disabled, I began to eat more and more. I suppose I was trying to eat my emotions. Before I knew it, I was back up to 260 pounds! I have tried a million diets and nothing was working for me. Then, it dawned on me..... 'hey stupid! you went through hell getting this little pouch. this is your tool forever. use it!!!!' I am hoping that voice in my head is correct and that I have not lost my tool, but it's been sitting around getting rusty. I have recommitted myself to this journey! There is nothing I can do about the weight I have regained, other than fix it... and that's what I intend to do.
Now, I must figure out a plan.
