Im giving this forum a break

IM MY OWN MOTIVATION

I can understand it....I stayed away since Jan/Feb.....just decided to come back, for a bit anyway....see how much I can tolerate....

It's worth noting....when I first joined this group, those that I looked up to for advice, the veterans who helped me, are now ALL gone, and even those that were here, and had this surgery, starting this journey same time as me, well I have not seen them lately....

Once you loose the weight, start this new normal life, you just want to get on and live that skinny life....it's hard to hang around here and hear the same thing over and over again.......and keep reliving the past.....

But on the other hand, we all have a success story that people need to hear...and people need to hear everyone's variations and approaches to their success.....

I also think it is the people who "Know all the answers" but have no experience, just starting out themselves, that also bother me....but I have learned to put a few of them on my "Ignore" list which helps a great deal....

      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!!
