Just wanted to say hi and see how everyone is doing!

Hello. Sorry that your son is having to deal with health stuff. Sucks when you're younger especially. I'm good .. Ish lol I have a 5lb issue but feel whiny mentioning it lol
Missy, your 5-pound issue is shared by many people. It's not trivial at all. It can make the difference between being able to zip pants or choosing an elastic waistband instead. And the constant struggle can make you feel impotent, like a failure. Since you're such a veteran of the bariatric wars, maybe you can dig around and find some old posts that share solutions for dealing with "failing" within a 5-pound window. I know how you feel, even though I also know it seems small. it's a danger sign, in a way. Five pounds can quickly become 10 and more.... Please share with us, and maybe you can give some insights into what you think might be behind it.
