I made really bad choices



Recommended Posts

Yesterday I made bad choices most of the day. I ate to much for dinner. Had a really bad snack an hour before bed and choose junk 3 separate times during my day. I woke up this morning feeling like crap yet again. Why do I keep doing this to myself.

Today is a new day and I am going to try to have a better day then yesterday. I'm down in the dumps.

Can I make a suggestion? I've seen via your posts, that you are struggling with your weight and getting back on track, etc. You have been doing well and then yesterday, seemed to once again sabotage yourself. Would you consider seeing a professional to try to get to the heart of why you are struggling so much? We all have issues with food. It's why we got to where we are. Maybe you can find out why your behaviors trip you up. If you can get this under control, the weight struggle would either cease, or at least become manageable. Anyway, just a suggestion. If that's not going to work for you, let us help you as much as we can by supporting you.

Yesterday is just that. It's the past. Today is a new day so try and think of tomorrow as a gift. Everyone backslides so don't worry. It's the destination you need to keep in mind, not the little stumbling blocks along the way. Maybe a tiny fill would be the ticket. GOOD LUCK!

Even people that are not overweight have days when they don't make the best food choices. My sister has been thin her whole life, she also a devoted runner. She eats healthy most of the time but does allow splurges every once and a while. I know I am going to also struggle and have a splurge and I am trying not to beat myself up over it when it happens. My struggle like you is getting myself back on track when I "slip up". I am going to start to try and not think of these as slip ups any more, we are human beings and will have an occasional off day from our nutrition and excerise. What I am batteling is to not let one day of bad choices turn into months, weeks, years, of eating like I am never going to see a piece of fried chicken or cake again. God gave me this wonderful body and I am doing my best to care for it and make myself healthy and strong. It is not easy but with his grace and support from each other we can do it!

AMEN!!!! Don't we all do that? 'Since I ate crap today what's "one more" day gonna hurt?' ....and then the next...then the next.... Is it human nature? Or just bad habits that's so natural to us big people?

I copied a quote today from a completely unrelated sight that I'm gonna put up somewhere in my bathroom cuz I think it pertains to this and all things in our lives....

Stop trying to hold onto the past. – You can’t start the next chapter of your life if you keep re-reading your last.

We gotta stop beating ourselves up for things in the past! Forgive ourselves and move on!! Good luck nailpro I'm starting all over with u.

I had a really good day today. Burned lots of calories swimming and went over my calorie count but had better choices. Thank you all for your support.

      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... :(
