Remember that tomorrow is a new day. I think that most of this is getting over our emotional state and all of the stress. Try to find a few minutes each morning or evening to just focus on what you are going to do for that day. Plan...Plan....Plan....I know that I do so much better when I am prepared. Don't beat yourself up over the setback. Remember this is a journey. There will be bumps in the road. It is a matter of refocusing and getting back on track again. You can do it!

Dad said it so well! I would add -- set a mini goal for yourself (eating right today, getting a walk in). Find time to do small things like planning your meals while you walk. You can do this! Like you said -- you have come this far! Schedules are hectic but make it work for you :-). Best of luck!!!

I had surgery July 27 and have only lost 9 pounds, is this normal??

Forget about yesterday and focus on tomorrow!! I agree with both Dad and Sandra..there are bumps in the road but don't beat yourself up..stay focused and remain positive...set mini goals and take some time for yourself..even if it is only 15 minutes a day..you deserve it. I wish you the best.
