hey all. the holidays threw me for a loop, and now i'm so off the wagon! i'm having a very hard time getting back on. i've lost 97 lbs so far, and want to lose about 30-35 more. where is my motivation? i feel like such a loser....that i can have weight loss surgery and i still can't succeed....HELP!

Stop beating yourself up!

You couldn't have gotten this far because you are a loser!!! Now that the holidays are over, many of us are where you are trying to get back on track. Go back to the basics, and what worked before. You can do this... one day at a time!!!!!!

I was having trouble getting back on the wagon as well. I started by cleaning out my kitchen, replacing anything inappropriate with appropriate things and started charting calories again. I use fitday.com. I hate to track something like a piece of cheesecake so it helps me to avoid that kind of food. The other thing I did was cut out carbs altogether . . . I was becoming too dependent again.

Good luck. You can definitely get back on track and you have had success before. Regrouping and starting over again fresh should really help.

Boy, this is the tread I was looking for. It's been very difficult for me also. Where is my resolve? I did well at home but at work it was such a struggle. And the dinner invitations out didn't help one bit! I'm soooooo glad the holidays are over. I need a support group meeting and to speak with a nutritionst. I think that will help. In the meantime, I'm praying and trying to be prepared for each meal. Take the guess work and the temptation out of the way. Hope we all have a happy and healthy new year!! Who deserves it more than us!!!

Just a thought, but I was way off track after the holidays....I sucked it up and did the five day pouch test...I'm back on track, back in control and my band is really working again like it should!

It's tough, but really helps to break the nasty carb cycle that I got into on the holiday break....BONUS was the four pounds I lost in the five days!
