Hi, my name is Amy and am in the beginning stages of my weight loss journey.  The best part is I have found an exercise I enjoy and do it almost daily and it is water aerobics.  I am so happy I found something so good for me that I enjoy.  The frustrating part is controlling the emotional eating and increasing the healthy portion of my diet.  I enjoy comfort foods, such as macaroni and cheese, love pasta.  I have tried weight watchers and TOPS and lost about 40 lbs with each program.  But it didn't take me long to gain the weight back, less than a year.  I want to be successful on this journey and would appreciate any tips you may have for success.  I am preparing for the gastric sleeve surgery.  I tend to do a lot of preparation and research, but then don't always follow through.  I want to be able to complete the process with the actual surgery and move forward.  And any advice would be appreciated.
