Recommended Posts

I Finally made it to onderland!!!!

Six month stall broken.

I finally gave myself a boot in the ass and told myself to get back on board or I wasted all this time and money for nothing.

I was loosing fine then started drinking diet soda again, that triggered sweet cravings!! so I then discovered I could eat chocolates and drink coffee all day without any problems. Plus, 12 Pepsi Max's a day.

I realize now that I am EXTREMELY carb sensitive so I have gone back to extreme low carb eating. Probably less than 20 carbs a day and it's working. I broke the stall!!! No net-carb crap. No sugar free, no splenda, or aspartame. I found the original Atkins book that he first wrote and am following that (to some degree). Not the 2000 book but the 1970 something book.

I know now that I can't eat like other people I have to watch what carbs are going in my mouth.

I even bought a meat slicer and mini smoke house and make my own beef Jerky. Great snack through the day.

Damn I am so happy right now!!!!!

Yeeee- hooooo!!!!!!

Thanks!

It was a long haul but I finally did it. Now to get these last 50 pounds off.

It is still so easy to fall into bad eating habits, I took the sleeve for granted and assumed it would do all the work for me but now I realize (again) it is just a tool.

It was strange how my brain started searching out for a way to get around it. I started subsisting on my two of my biggest "slider foods" popcorn and chocolate. I became obsessed with them!

The funny thing is I never liked either of them before the sleeve. Seems like subconsciously I found foods that would keep me fat and I could cheat with.

Now I know how people regain their weight. This weight thing seems to go so much deeper than just the physical.

It is very strange how our brains work. lol

Thanks for the congrats!

:)

Well done you!!!

Great news that the stall has been broken and you have learnt a lot about yourself too!

I am currently in the middle of a long stall - abt 2mths - and it really gives me hope to hear that folk on here break long stalls... I know I have to be patient!

Good luck on your continuing weight loss... =]

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
