hotrod75 reacted to MzStockton in 2yrs PO
Goal was to loose 100pds the closest I got to that goal was 77pds and over the course I've regained 17pds. I've been enjoying eating bad food even though I'm eating very little so today I've made the decision to STOP THE MADDNESS AND TAKE CONTROL!!!!! I'm beginning the regain maintenance program through the Bariatric 101 plan on FB(they provide a link), drinking more Water and exercising at least 3x out the week(NO MORE BEING LAZY & GREEDY) wish me luck!!

hotrod75 reacted to Elode in Surgery Monday. I'm about to back out!
@@frankenstein Let me just say 99% of what your worried about is Bullshit. The only thing true about that is the permanent part. Honestly you can do all of that after surgery, once your healed I'd say by 6 months out you will be shocked. They tell you all of that to scare you into taking the surgery serious. I couldn't guzzle Water after surgery but today I just drank a whole 16.9 fl oz bottle of water in 3 minutes. I can eat and drink at the same time. I don't because I don't want to make the food go through my stomach faster but I can. You can defiantly drink beer. Now, you won't be able to "guzzle" beer because it's full of carbonation so that will not feel good. There's is NOTHING I can't do that I did before. You're going to find it more trying NOT to fall back into old habits. Thank god I can't eat as much!

hotrod75 reacted to J3nnif3r8 in I'm banded!
I was banded yesterday! I'm in a bit of pain, especially when the meds start to wear off so I'm setting alarms to make sure I take them every four hours, even at night. I've been taking Gas X strips to help with the pain in my shoulder. Honestly the shoulder/gas pain was worse than the belly pains yesterday. I'm not really hungry so I've been forcing myself to drink a bit of a Protein Shake and sip some Tomato Soup. I'm just so excited for this new beginning. I'm proud to finally be a part of this group. ????

I get what you are saying totally. It's not 9 lbs . . . it's the slippery slope of falling back into bad behaviors and going back to 289.
Get 'er done!
