Hello there, I had my vsg January 24, 2012. I paid cash for my surgery which makes this even worse for me. I find I am getting back into old habits. I am eating so much junk it's not funny. I started at 219 and got down to 173. I went from a size 18 almost 20 to a size 12-14. By some miricle, I am still able to fit into this size. I may have gained about 7 or 8 pounds though. I don't exercise like I should. I have started walking more recently.
I am so disgusted with myself. I would have probably gained everything back if it weren't for I don't have room to put it. On a regular day, I was eating a box of chocolates, a bag of nuts, or some sort of sweet and also maybe a bag of Cheetos. I made up my mind last week to lay off the sweets. I bought fruit yesterday and a bag of Cheetos. I have been eating the fruit and the Cheetos lasted 2 days.
I paid good money for this surgery and can't believe I'm throwing it away like this. I travel a great deal for my job and right now I am in a hotel room with a small refrigerator and a microwave. So I can't do alot of healthy food shopping if I have to refrigerate it. I will be here for a few months so it's hard to grocery shop. I need some sort of encouragement and a kick in the butt. I would still like to lose about 25-30 pounds. Somehow I need to start this thing over. Any suggestions?
I know. I'm pissed because I can't eat this portabello mushroom stuffed with crabmeat. Can only eat about 1/4th. BUT...... I'm pleased with my results. Guess it's a good thing...in a way
Do you ever fill your bowl up or plate with something to eat and even go so far as to start eating and realize you had this surgery? And wonder 'how did I think I was going to eat all of this??'
