Does this sound like a broken record?

Well as I sit down to write this I look back at the past posts and wonder what
happened or what did I do wrong? So much has changed, yet so much remains the
same.  I was at my all time highest weight and without much effort have lost 62
pounds. 

While that is an accomplishment with so much to lose, it's hardly a
drop in the bucket.  When I started this blog it was January 2006,  Now four
years later I weigh more than I do now than then, but have recently discovered
just how much of this is mental and think that's huge.

So we'll see, I weighed in last night and am ready to start the journey, There
is no quick fixes I know

this and want to spread that message.  It's not rocket science we all know that,

what I want to figure out is what makes those succesful with the battle
different than those who throw in the towel.  I hope you get something from
this. If you have questions ask I have a network of bariatric experts that i'm
going to tap for help. And so the journey begins .... again :)
