Talking Newbie that is 3 years post-op, need to be remotivated

Hello everyone. I stumbled across this site and must tell you I am so excited about it. I had my WLS Jan. 2005. I started at 298 and reached my goal weight a year ago, losing a total of 161lbs. The only problem is I gained back 45lbs. over the last year. I moved from Maine to Florida leaving my surgeon, dietition, and post op support group behind. I had no idea how important they were in helping me with my weight loss. It takes the support of people who understand what it takes to have WLS. I just wanted to introduce myself, and let you all know I'm glad I found you!!

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

there are a couple of things on here that might help you find your way back. one is a 5 day pouch reset the other is called the "pouch rules". not sure if you have come across these yet but maybe they will help you get back on the wagon?? good luck keep us posted on how you're doing.

I just read about that today, and am going to start tomorrow. Very excited about it. I need to take it back to the basics of the beginning, and remeber what a great tool i have been given.
