Unhappy And here I am AGAIN :-(

I was here in 2005-2006, I lost almost 200 lbs on my own. From 344 lbs to 148. I then had a hysterectomy and went to work at a new job. I am since regained to about 300 lbs. I am now trying to find a new way to get the weight off since what I was doing before doesn't work so well since the hysterectomy.
Sooooo Hi all AGAIN!

Hi Julie, welcome back. This forum is a wealth of information as I am sure you already know.

I may be having a hysterectomy next month (I have endometrial cancer and trying to get pregnant before the inevitable...) and I am petrified of gaining my weight back after the hysterectomy.

Hi! I really packed on the pounds after going back to work, too! I let my busy schedule be an excuse for not shopping for and preparing healthy foods. It is expensive in more ways than one! I pay more per meal, AND have to buy bigger clothes!
Glad to see you are back and working to make changes. So much easier to do with other folks around!

Dani

Hi Julie - don't be down on yourself - I am here too, feeling like it is for another time again. But the fact that we are here means that we are still fighting, still doing something about it! The real defeat only comes when we sit down and accept it!

You can do this, girl!

Hi Julie... welcome back! And hey, you are far from being the first one of us who has had to start over... we just have to pick ourselves up again and keep going.

You can do it.

My absolute FAVOURITE quote of all time: You may be disappointed if you fail, but you are doomed if you don't try.

No one ever said this would be an easy journey but hey...can you said you tried today? Yes. You can. And for that, you're already a success Keep it up. I'm rooting for you!!!
