First of all, Elyse, CONGRATULATIONS! Keep up the good work!
Second of all, as long as you keep telling yourself you're "always going to gain it back" you will gain it back. You have to stop with the negative self-talk, my friend. Instead of listening to that voice that says, "Well, that means you aren't eligible for the surgery," how about replacing that with something positive, like, "Great! This means I can lose the weight, which means I won't have to put my body through the trauma of surgery! Woo-hoo!" That, my friend, is positive self-talk in action.
Every time you have a negative thought (like the one I quoted you on), catch yourself up and replace it with a positive outlook. If you truly want to win this battle of the bulge, you have to become more conscious of your own thought processes, and learn how to catch and replace those negative thoughts.
