incontrol(almost)

i am almost six months out from my surgery date. i never weigh myself at home. i only weigh in at my monthly doctor appointments. i would be so stressed otherwise. i may be experiencing a three week stall right now but i do not know it.

congratulations on your hard work and determination. what a journey!

i do not allow a scale in the house. just get weighed at my appointments. who needs the stress of it?

congratulations. what a lot of hard work and determination to get you to this point!

two weeks out and having hard time getting protein in. just soooooo tired of protein shakes.

sorry about your discomfort/agony. i also, had an unbearable first week. my pain was not relieved at all in the hospital. after five days home found out i had a splenic infarcture. i have been uncomfortable every moment of the last two weeks. i am now covered in a head to toe rash from the pain meds. whoever said this was the easy way out has no flipping clue. i am just trying to take it moment by moment. hang in there!

only you can make the right decision for yourself. hope your body has time to heal now.

i do not have a scale in my house. i am just relying on my dietician/doctor appointments. i don't need the constant questioning of my body. i have done that long enough. if you can't get rid of your scale entirely maybe you can pick one day a week to weigh yourself?

congratulations. you look and sounds like you feel amazing. i am two weeks out and still tired/weak. great to read stories with hope.

a forty pound loss is amazing. the fact that you have decided you need another tool to continue in this journey is admirable. i would only tell people that are going to support you. as far as anyone else is concerned, the weight loss that will continue will be from using weight loss tools. this journye is yours and only yours. enjoy.

thank you so much for all your information. much appreciated.

thank you everyone. i will just take lots of deep breaths.
