I confess I do excercise alot I confess I drink once a week I confess at 5 months out I am desperately needing to hear that people do lose weight passed the stalls. That people succeed even if they drink once a week or have a couple pretzels. I confess that I need support from people who are close to a year out because if I wake up at 187 pounds again tomorrow I confess I might eat french toast for breakfast and not excercise at all!!- May slow losers - vent here!
What I try to remind myself that any normal person who ate less than evem 1500 calories and then excercised atleast 5 days a week would lose and maintain a healthy weight. And we CUT OUT OUR STOMACHES!! Easy to forget the odds are in our favor for a change! One day at a time works here too, patience sucks!- May slow losers - vent here!
I drink 16.9 watr bottles. So when I do my walk or bike ride I drink one. Then I have another when I take my vitamins. Then my 3rd is almost always a crystal light. I babysit my 4th all afternoon and have a 5th for bed. 5 bottles @ 16.9= 84.5- May slow losers - vent here!
Whoops October's weigh in 185- May slow losers - vent here!
Oh what pullede out of the stall finally was I didnt cheat or drink for a solid 3 days. Not one bite, and I ate every 3 hours very small amounts and I followed my normal excercise routine.- May slow losers - vent here!
@kohe I was sleeved on 5/21. SW 237.7 down from 253.4. Current weight 185. I hit a serious nearly 6 week stall where I was 191 for what seemed lile forever. What I did find though was that my August weighin was 196 and my September weighin was 191.4 and then October was finally 195. For me I would drop and then rise back up a pound or 2. I don't really consider this "gaining weight" because I am losing. And even though I had those six weeks at 191 technically I did drop at the 1 month mark. And had I not been an obsessive weigher (which believe me I AM) I may not have even known about the stall!! Now I see I am avering 5 or 6 pounds a month and I want to lose a final 55 poundd to be beyond any goal. When I did the math I realized even on a slow 5 pounds a month scale that adds 11 months to my already 5. Giving me 124.3 pounds in 16 months nearly 50% WL. In a time frame that docs say is good. So try looking at your numbers in increments. And from what everyone told me when I freaked over my stall I just got through we'll see them again. However, I excercise alot. But I also have a cookie once ina while. I just dont eat them allday!!- 5 Confessions (Join In)
I confess that I want to drink sooo bad because its Friday. I confess that's ironic because I am a stay at home wife everyday is friday. I confess that I dont count my protien at all, but I hardly eat and what I do is usually good. I confess I excercise my butt off atleast 6 days a week, hence the almost perfect diet and occasional drinking. I confess I weigh everyday sometimes multiple times I confess I had a slice of whest bread this week I confess I had surgery 5/21/13 SW 237.7 CW 185 total loss of 68.7 pounds and want to lose another 35 pounds then finally 20. I confess I get bored when im not excercising and need something else to do besides obsess! I confess ive had a very small amount of fast food from nearly every restaurant simce being sleeved but justify it because I hardly break 600 calories a day. Unless I drink. Sighhh- May sleevers results so far!
Tomorrow is my 5 month weighin. HW 264. 1st appt 253.4 (april 2013) SW 237.7 (may 21 2013) CW 185 52.7 pounds simce surgery 68.7 pounds since April I had a huge 5 week stall and even my last 2 month weigh ins have only been about 5 or 6 pounds a month. I started exercising 3 month after surgery, I had severe back problems but I walk 2.3miles 6days a week. I bicycle 6-7 miles 3days a week too. I have become crazy obsessive with weighing and losi g weight and what if I dont lose anymore. Its so easy to forget that if we had excercised 5-6 days a week before and had even watched what we ate we probably would have never been 264 pounds!! So why is it that after we cut out our stomachs, and eat 500 calories a day, and excercise like crazy we still think we wont loose weight?? Is it wrong to be unhappy knowing on my 6month weighin Nov 21st I probably still be 180 having only lost another 5 pounds? I am working my ass off and it is soo slow now. When I first had surgery I thought man 150 would be less than what I weighed when I got married....but now almost 70 pounds lighter I want to finish out and start maintenance at 130. Sooo 55 pounds at 5 pounds a month means 11 more months. How does this sound to others? I guess 134 pounds in 16 months is good?? I have been lucky enough to not have to work right now, so all morning I excercise, eat right and then my husband goes to work at night. And the obsessing starts. There isnt enough tracking amd journal writing to save me. Any thoughts, suggestions, kind words, insite? Heres another thought. If I knew right now I wasnt going to lose another pound. Would I keep exxercising so much? Or just see how long I could get by on under 750 calories??- Overeating
Many of us had to go through a preop diet. If I would have gained a pound my doctor would have postponed my surgery. I ended up losing 17 pounds in the pre op phase and had my surgery in 6 weeks from my initial consult. Ask around you may be in for a big surprise if you go in heavier. Be careful. And just know youll be able to eat food. Just wont need plates full to make you happy.- Overeating
