Your attitude and your words. You kept repeating a very raciest word. I can not stand people who use words like that one.

If you read the forum rules, there is not to be name calling and especialy raciest name calling.

She said the same thing on the other thread"i lied" .

Just saying people who like to put raciest crap on hear will be reported. And please remember this is a public forum anyone can post on hear when they feel the need to ask for support or give needed info. Thank you

You cant be really that dumb not to know that the word "coon "is a very raciest word.

Like Laura said the right one is out there for you. You need to start working on you. Got out in the sun, take some long walks and breathe in the air and let your worries go. Life is so short to begin with and probably shorter if you didnt have this surgery. My theory is everything happens for a reason, better now than in the future. Usually when a partner leaves after they have surgery is because that person gets confidence and think they can do better. As for your case maybe she would not be able to deal with the confidence you were showing before she left. Be proud of yourself you deserve to be happy everyone does. Take this time as a new begining.

As time goes by it will get easier I promise. You need to nourish your body with healthy foods to also help with your depression. You will get through this, keep your head high and your attitude positive you did the right thing for you.

But you know what Laura, sometimes when we change things up our bodies are not use to it and we lose. I believe our bodies get use to eating the same foods and calories every day so its use tou the comfort zone we set up for it. We have to keep shakening it up, so it does not get use to the normal. I will tell when I started backsliding one day I ate 4 hersheys chocolates with almonds ( the full size bars) in one day. I was getting so depressed, the next morning after that chocolate feast and expected to of gained weight but instead I had lost 1.9 lbs. I still dont understand it. I promised myself I would never do that again. But it goes to show when you change things up ( like the 5:2 diet) our bodies will drop the weight.

Stil doing the 5:2, lost 6lbs so far. This is the 3rd week day 1. The restriction is awesome.

Try chewing gum. That's what helped me the most and also brushing my teeth a lot when I wanted to smoke or if I know its head hunger. Sometimes when you feel hungry it might be that your thirsty.

You look great FYE. I have a yorkie also her name is Pookie Tinka Bella lol. Shes a rescue dog( my baby since the kids are grown now). I hope you had a wonderful birthday.

What a beautiful woman you were before and a beautiful healthy happy woman you are now. Congratulation I hope to be in your shoes one day.

You look amazing! Congratulations Pattycake.

Thumbs up Laura great job.

It always goes back to the old saying " we always want what we cant have" somehow some way you have to find another way to overcome this way of thinking. It can be done, look at how many people have succeeded with this surgery so far.

Im 6 months out and yes you will be able to eat more than at first sleeve. Thats why it is so important to deal with the reasons you overeat. The restriction will always be there but it is possible to graze all day and eat around your restriction.

Thank you for putting this on here. Im better today. You put 2 great role models on here for me to follow. I must say following you also with your success will help me as well.

Thank you. You are right. I just have to keep telling myself that I did this to live and be healthy. I know this is not a diet, it is my new lifestyle and it is good.

There are always sugar free snow cones. They are the best with no calories and no carbs.

Thanks SpaceDust. I knew it was gonna be life changing. Its just that I am an addict when it comes to food. It just really hit me like a brick when I finally realized that this is forever. I really dont know what I was thinking while I researched everything I thought I knew about this surgery. I guess there will always be something new as time goes on and more people are being sleeved. I just had one of those aha moments. Again thank you for the words of encouragement.
