Same with my mom. She majorly projected her childhood bullies on to me “you’ll never have more friends if you don’t lose weight” ( I had plenty) jokes on her, the goal weight of 145 was what I was at when she was the harshest in high school —if only I had the backbone then to tell her to shove it. It caused me to believe I looked like I was 300lbs when I was 1/2 that, that I was ugly and undesirable. Moms can suck. My therapist I started seeing postop has me challenging self talk and the negative things that have happened in the past and has me writing what I wish she would have said or what I would say or do in the situation we’re roles reversed

take BCAA capsules these will help curb soreness by aiding repair
drink 25g Protein within 30 minutes of a workout
make sure you’re getting enough salt I use Hilyte drops to help boost this
and use a roller right after your workout before static stretching
Drink a little tart cherry juice or extract with protein before bed
Lots of Water they say a gallon I have trouble meeting that but will go to an IV Bar if I’m feeling more pains and dehydration than normal
I love Isopure collagen drinks they are a light flavor not too sweet and I can get 10g protein per 8oz I drink

I no longer have to wear wide shoes or plus size clothes.

Here are just a couple of the silly things that have made me smile the last couple weeks:
1. I can buy cute underwear that are not made out of white flour sack material.
2. I can put on my socks in the morning with out making strange sounds and grunting.
3. When getting dressed to go somewhere the first thing out of my mouth is NOT "does this make me look fat!"

I’ve noticed that I have already been able to handle the heat a little better in south Florida after 30 pounds. Granted it’s not summer weather yet and I won’t lose it fast enough to be able to handle it this year but next year I should. You reminded me of that because my husband lives outside and in the summer I rarely see him cause it’s just too hot for me.

Today I had an unexpected and surprisingly satisfying NSV. I noticed that my belly button shrank. It's about 50% shallower than it used to be! Who knew I would be so pleased about less depth to my belly button? 😆

Wiping my own butt without breaking my back trying to reach 🤦🏼‍♀️
