Years ago I lost weight, got my diabetes in control and became a runner. I went from 260 down to 210. I was in an online group. I was there every day reading, responding and posting. They became my mentors, my sounding boards and the ones who picked me up when I wanted to give up. The internet can be awesome for that.
Then bad stuff happened, years passed, my life changed, and I no longer have that support. And I gained a bit opf weight back.
And here I am post sleeve and trying to lose the weight. It was easy to do post surgery alone at home... but now out in the real world, it's much harder. And I not only want to lose the weight but I want to be running again. We'll see.
I have my water bottle, that solved my problem getting enough water in. Now I have a gorgeous lunch bag coming, that will also have the same effect in keeping me focused on "my" food. But I definately need to participate here. Reading other people is sovery helpful. I always feel so much more centered after reading here. I think it's critical, at least to me, to read like minded people for their experience.
As with my water bottle, and lunch bag, reading forums will be added as a daily tool for success.
