NEVER-MIND I'M JUST FINE



Recommended Posts

WOW! NEVER-MIND

Just yesterday I was almost in tears thinking that I'm a failure. I was almost thinking about missing another doctors appointment because I didn't want to hear him say "your not on track"

Today is my two month surger-versary. I Jumped on the scale this am, and WOW, down 50lb. !!!

(since preop diet)

That means SOMEHOW I've lost 3lbs in 3 days (?) , the only thing different I've done is added 15 almonds ( no salt) in my diet daily for the past 3 days, upped my Water and had a slim fast for the past 3 days. Never-mind, I'm not a failure and I'm not letting that scale get me down again. It plays tricks on you mind. CrAzY TrIcKs!

Congrats! It's easy to get discouraged, I'm glad you're feeling better about yourself. Remember this the next time a slow losing period hits - it WILL end, and it's not your fault.

I have been slow losing the last several weeks - about 2 lbs a week. This week - 6 lbs. I think the biggest differences have been I'm able to get a little more Protein from food/less Protein drinks and I've continued to push to up my fluids. Gotta go update my ticker :-)

Wow, congrats!! You're doing great!! Good for you on not letting the scale control you or your moods. We are taking the slow scenic route, not the interstate. And we'll get to our destination when we're suppose to.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
