I had my gastric bypass surgery in 2006. I've lost 175 and kept it off but it has been hard work!! Looking for friends.

I also had my surgery in 2006. I'm finding it hard to keep on track. I have gained a little weight back. Still exercising 4-5 times a week. I went to the app store hoping to find something like weight watchers for bariatric pts but had no luck. I love the new me after the by pass but need some help getting back on the downward slope. Before and after surgery I did Water aerobics but had to quit 2 years later cuz I couldn't afford it any more now I use my wii and the gym at work to walk. But still not going down. Has to be what I am putting in my mouth. I'm a nervous eater and have the hardest time when at work. Not sure why my job isn't that stressful anymore. Anyone have any suggestions? So glad to have found this app!

Forgot to mention that I originally lost 178 lbs. would love to keep going (and get back to that) as I still have quite a bit to go.
