Eat To Live!



Recommended Posts

Hi Ken, I can't help you with your plateau, I was just banded 10/15 , sitting here drinking my Protein drinks.

I have been to your blog, but I'm on my phone so I'll check more out when I get on my computer. Just by what I read, you must be a Simpson's fan. My daughter talks to me in that Mc so & so talk.lol

I also have the Eat to Live book and we get him every weekend on pbs.

There's a lot of truth in what he says, but I have caught him in an untruth too. IMO, I don't think most people can live the rest of their lives eating like that.

Just like you can't live on any "diet" for the rest of your life.

Looking forward to reading your blog.

Good luck with your current stall and congratulations on your success.

Well Ken first of all welcome aboard.If you reached a plateau in your weight loss journey.Youre going to have to shock the body and wake it up.Change up your routine your exercise regimen.Or you could be naturally where you need to be weight wise.

I don't necessarily get caught up in the numbers on the scale as some may do.How your clothes are fitting.If you can see your toes now without moving the shed.Are you enjoying life.Those questions you must answer yourself.How does your girlfriend or significant other see you now.Dont forget that muscle weighs more than fat.so if you have been in the gym.kicking those steel plates around.Then maybe your weight could be stabilized by your muscle growth.One thing is for sure.Youre probably a lot better looking and feeling better now than ever before.All of us here hope that you are.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
