Excellent post. I could comment on everything you wrote (in total agreement) but I won't get long winded and say only this- anyone who claims they are "perfect", that weight loss is easy, and they never become impatient or frustrated- IS LYING.
I have lost a lot of weight and I do exactly as my doctor and NUT advise 90% of the time, but that other 10%? I'm totally going off the path. And frustration? Dear Lord, I have been trying to lose this one stink'n pound for a week now. ONE STUPID POUND! You'd think after losing 199 just 1 more would be easy peasy, right? Pffft, stupid thing is clinging on for dear life AND invited a half pound friend over!
...and that is just my most recent frustration. There have been many before it and I'm sure there will be many after.
Keep doing what you're doing because you're doing so very great

Congratulations. That is awesome!

I am right there with you. I see my Dr. next Tuesday afternoon and can't wait to have something other than shakes and soup!

This was a great post to read. I had band with plication surgery yesterday. I can not tolerate the pain meds so am just taking tylenol. So far it is bearable but I think I have a high pain tolerance in general. I am glad to hear you feel great 8 days out. I go back to work next Tuesday and hope to be feeling pain-free. Best of luck to you! I am looking forward to watching your progress!

My surgery is tomorrow, too. What time is your surgery. Mine is scheduled for 9am. Is it outpatient? I hope to be home by mid-afternoon tomorrow. Best of luck.
