Why am I constantly feeling like I am doing everything wrong? I feel like I am taking to many sips or eating one slice of cheese to fast. Ugh!!!!

I believe you need to relax. Trust yourself and your journey, Miss Connecticut :). Vigilance is a necessity, but obsessiveness is strength zapping.

I put the word "RELAX" on my mirror in my bedroom. On the fridge I have the word "TRUST". Those are just for me. No one needs to know what they mean. My small gift to myself.

You got this----you know it!!!

You are being mindful of your eating and want to eat correctly.

I would say you are doing it right.

Keep up the great work.

I am having a hard time taking a half hour to eat my food. I am on 1/4 of a cup and I only eat a couple of bites an I am done.

That will change so hang in there. As you heal you will be able to eat more. Focus on quality and not quantity. Measure your food but don't stress if you cannot finish it all. Relax and breathe. You've got this!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
