....... Well I have done it . I have gained 10 pounds. I have been worried this would happen since I hit goal, but I am still shocked it happen. I will not sit here and say I don't know why it happened, it happened because i snack I eat all the wrong stuff.  I think about food all the time.  I dont dump any more and I can eat alot more ...........
Hmmm. NOW THE HARD PART.  What do I do to stop it. I dont want to diet, diets dont work. back to basics you say.  sounds great , but the problem with that the protein shakes and bars, jello  and chicken doesnt  fill me up anymore.  ANY SUGGESTIONS....Help
hugs terri

Oh my. i got on here tonight because I am 5 years out now and have considered myself successful, until lately.
I had an undiagnosed ulcer for almost 5 years and was unable to eat alot of thigs without bring it all back up. a doctor figured it out and put me on prilocec and now all the pain is gone and I can eat anthing thing and do. I am also a late evening eater, I am fine until dinner then not 2 hours later it is on I am eating all night. I keep trailmix by my computer and if i dont have that I will find something..I have not changed in my brain at all not from the fat person 5 years ago. I AM addicted to food just as out of control as anyone else with addictions to drugs or drink. where do we go what surgery can we get now for this. the tool is there but I can cheat it, with denial, grazing,diet pills,and useing all the same things that didnt work before. diets didnt work for me then and they wont work now. I have to find the key to fix the brain. HELP

  I thought I should check in. I give others a hard time for not updating so I thought I had better write something in here.
nothing new to report still weighing in at 120.
I am trying to save money for plastics. I had the tummy done 2 yeas ago and am mostly happy with it.
I am looking in to having face and neck done. With my age and the weight loss my face looks about 10 yeas older than i am and i REALLY want to take care of it. Of course like most of us money is my main concern and I am saving as much as I can. I will let everyone know when I am going to get it done.
so hugs to all and if anyone ever need to talk write me.

Well I made it to 4 years without any major problems and that is a good thing.
I am still confronting all the same issues everyone else is and know this will be life long. I have good and bad days but the good out weigh the bad.
I am going to continue to update here but I will be useing the blog instead of the profile, that way know ones has to go all through it to see what is going on now. 
There really isnt too much to add on here my weight is still around 120 . I weigh everyday. I do not want to let it creep up, so I try to stay on top of it. By weighing myself daily it seems to help me to not let it get too out of hand where I just say "what the hell" and stop trying.
For me staying aware and trying hard not to ever forget where I have been is my way of making today the best I can and trying harder tomorrow.
I dont have any words of wisdom we all have to find what works for us and with alot of luck and a working tool next year when I update I wont have to say. well this has been a bad year....... I still need you all and admire your courage for , as too many in the press and elsewhere tell us, "for taking the easy way out",  NOT!
HUGSSSSSSSS
