Hello everyone. Been a long time since I was here

Hi, my name is Sybul and it's been a long time since I've posted.  I am almost 4 years out from my RNY.  Started at 315 lbs and got down to 123.  I have been very happy and healthy there.  This past holiday season, I experienced a set-back.  I have gained 7 lbs.  I always stayed away from any sugars but for some reason started out by trying a "bite" of this and that and before I knew it here I am.  Unhappy as hell.  I have decided to take these extra lbs off before they just start creeping back up even further.  I admit I have gotten lazy and have not been posting my daily intake or exercising.  I have just started back trying to hget my water for the day in again also.  I know that this is the best place for support and helped me through all the major weight loss so here I am again.  Wish me luck!

Welcome "home" Sybul. Don't believe for one minute that you are the only one in the world to have a regain. You are not alone and you are so right that this is this place for us to come rain or shine.

Hi Sybul,

Thanks for your post. It reminded me again of how important all the steps are in the on-going battle of the bulge.

You are a veteran and you know what to do. You have been so successful and you will be going forward as well.

I look to you veterans for the hope. I hope my post can help you as well.

The woman in this forum rock!

Best,

Sharon

Hello Sybul and welcome back!!

There are several of us trying to lose the pounds we lost!!
I was 118 and am now about 20 pounds over that...UGH! Working hard to get myself back to 125...that was a good weight for me.

Glad you stopped back in...see you later.

HUGS....connie d

Glad to see a familiar face Connie.  I am scared to death that this could lead to my slowly gaining my weight back.  I swear I will never get back where I was come hell or high water.  I put my old picture up on the fridge to help remind me. 

Thanks everyone.    I appreciate your support.  I'm working on the snacking I'm doing. It adds up to more than I realized.  A little bite here, another there.  I'm back to charting all my intake and this morning I tried this new cd, Pilates weight loss for beginners.  It about killed me, lol.  I did make it through the whole thing though.  I just can hardly move around, lol.  All my muscles feel like rubber!  It will get better.  Hope everyone has a good day.
