I was so off track both mentally and physically. The day after surgery I weighed in at 267. Dropped to 232 then back up to 235.4. I was questioning if my stomach was stretched out and if that's why I felt like I ate more than I should or was now feeling hungry all the time. Was it my stomach or my old habits? I do not want to fail this journey!! I'm tired of being obese and buying plus size clothes. I started being more active whether going to gym or walking at home. I try to do something at least 5 or more days a week. When I sit down to eat I try and listen to my stomach not my brain. I still eat rice and pasta but very rarely. I hate protein shakes and yogurt but found a Greek yogurt that's tolerable so I mix my protein powder in it so I can get more protein. Today I'm only down to 230 but I am not letting that bring me down. I haven't been this weight in probably 20 years. My original weight was 330 lbs I wore a tight 4x. It was miserable and I am halfway to where I want to be. I don't want to be skinny just healthy a size 12 will be good enough for me. Just to be under 200 would be amazing!! We can do this !!!

I just had mine on 21st of March and I already feel like u do. Food has been my comfort especially when I am down. I think I am going to try seeing a counselor for my eating issue. Try using the apps to log your food and I am doing multivitamin patches which make it easier not to forget. And don't go by the scale just get it in your mind that u are going to start brand new and start making the changes you need to and take it a day at a time. Good luck! I am struggling too and I'm just beginning which scares me.
