Hello everyone.

I'm sure I've talked to some of you before but I started out in January 2008 I believe it was and I lost around 50 pounds by the middle of May. I had ankle surgery at just over the half-way point of May and after the surgery it was too hard for me to keep on this WOE (or so I told myself). I'm about recovered from the surgery and I'm walking "BETTER" but I have to take it easy (no repetitive activities for 6 months) until the cartilage they are growing, grows.

So here I am..3 moths later and I wonder, "Could I be up to 75+lbs of weight lost?". I had to have surgery but the basic steps are over. I have since then gained 35 of the 50 lbs back and I know I need to get back to this WOE (but with my wife this time). The problem is that I just don't have the motivation like I had before.. I know nobody can do it but myself but I think getting on here again and browsing around was a first step. Posting is now my second step.......

What do you all think?
