circa 333 Posted January 29, 2013 That's right - one year. 150 lbs. still going but even if I didn't lose another pound I would be happy. I have my life back and it is GOOD. Thanks to those here that have been so supportive. Big HUGE thanks to Dr. Almanza and Dr. Betancourt and their whole crew. Melissa, my coordinator, who even came to see me during my surgery... What a blessing you all are! Can't wait to come visit and have some fun in TJ! Sent from my iPhone using VST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

circa 333 Posted January 31, 2013 What keeps me going? Life! I'm too busy to think about stopping! I never feel deprived or hungry! It's about changing your mindset if you think about food. Instead, think about what food allows you to do. Willpower is a crap excuse to not do something. Just start doing what you need to do and make it habit. You didn't become fat through willpower, you won't become healthy through it either. Form good habits. If you do something enough, it becomes automatic.
