Recommended Posts

I want to start by saying i'm Sorry too all my friends here.... I have been a bad role-model over these last few months... Need to start being honest with myself and say I have been a bad LB patients this past year.... I know you all have been there with me, supporting me and giving me all the "at-a-boys" and i truly appreciate them... Thanks for always being there for me.

So my apatite has been so out of control lately i find my self hungry all the time.... So this morning i call my doctor and he was able to get me in this morning. Stepping on the scale, i knew it would not be good.... 150... Holy ****. He added 1.5cc to my band and i'm hoping that will help me get my hungry back in Check.

I have been eating bad.... ice cream, and lots of carbs.... have not been drinking all my Water and have not been to the gym in over 8 months....

Today is a new start.... Going to get my Butt in gear and get into shape.... lose at least 10lb and get toned. NO MORE EXCUSES.....

I promise to me.... to get back on track and make me and all my friends proud. Block out all the negative and embrace all the positive.... NO MORE ICE CREAM.... more Protein and more water.... and back to the gym at least 4 days a week. I will start running tonight....

You have absolutely nothing to apologize for. I mean, really, that's like saying "sorry for being human". If anything, I respect you greatly for having the courage not only to come on here and share your mistakes but for taking back control in your life to correct them.

You're human, just like the rest of us. You messed up a bit but now you're back on track. You're going do to great, just stick to it :)

Mis said it well and let me add.... you ARE a modal bandster because you arent letting it get out of control... you are only up a few pounds... you will lose it in no time. Before the band it would just keep creeping back up.....

This is true.... before i would have already gained it all back. I know that band works and i know how to work my band.... I know what it takes and it takes not stopping at the ice cream shop on my way home and eating it in the car before anyone sees me.... stop going to the Cajun Potato and getting the baked potato.... Stop eating fruitloops at night for a meal when my husband is not home.....i need to get out of this Funk i'm in.... i need to stop listening too others when they start telling me... "your getting too thin"..... i need to get back to the Gym... and get dedicated to ME!!

2013 i will be 130-135 and toned....and tanned....lol Tan fat looks better than white fat...

Thank you guys

Your honesty is uplifting. Thank you for that. I have just reached my goal and entering into the new road of maintenance and this scares me more than the weight loss journey did. It is so refreshing to read stories like your, because as Missy said we are all human and we are going to have ups and downs. The key is being honest with yourself and doing something about it. & that is what you are doing.

Again, thanks for your honesty and good luck to you.

Insead of Ice cream I don't know if they have frozen yougurt places around where u r but I love the either non fat or sugar free frozen yougurt so that's what I eat cause I know I can eat a half gallon of ice cream well at least I used to and I used to eat a large frozen yourgurt now I can eat a small and be satisified so it seemed to help me for my sweet tooth also I put fruit in it just to make it more scrumptious and it taste just like ice cream.

You have done well. You are moving in the right direction. We all do these things but catching it before you get out of control is a great move. You are doing great ;)

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
