Ever have one of those days



Recommended Posts

So, yesterday was one of those days. I was not hungry at all but found myself resorting back to the bad habit of mindless picking at food and Snacks all day yesterday. I was doing so good with the boredom eating up until yesterday. Now, today, I feel so guilty that I don't even want to eat anything.

I find that when boredom grazing rears it's ugly head, it's time to do something to take your mind off eating. Take a walk, read a book, do a puzzle, knit, just do anything to focus on something other than food. I have to do that all the time to avoid that mindless eating.

Good luck and don't beat yourself up over what you did. Just learn from it and move on.

It happens to us .. the best thing to do is not beat yourself up over it and move on.. when i was in WW i learned a wonderful expression which i posted up in my work area... ready??? its .... BAM.. breath.. accept it and move on.

I had a bad week. Hit a plateau; and actually gained back a bit... left me feeling a bit down and I found I was cheating as a "defense mechanism." I guess we all go through some bad days.

The best thing about living is each day can be a new beginning. Just because yesterday was not a good day does not mean that today will not be a good day. pretty simplistic but will work life changes are never easy but the band journey will be worth it if you do not give up.

I was boredom eating nightly...so I upped my bedtime to curb it. It's hard to slough off old habits. Kudos to you for recognizing it...now take an extra walk to help with the extra calories. ;)

I agree w prev posts. Don't dwell on a bad choice. Think about all the good ones you have made and dwell on and draw strength from them. Rock it!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
