Buddy Wanted In Losing The Last 25 Pounds



Recommended Posts

I'm looking for a buddy in my journey to lose the last 25 pounds. I would like to find someone to help me be accountable for working out and eating right each day. It seems that most of my 'real-life' friends want to make it a competition, rather than us supporting eachother. If anyone is interested, let me know!

Hey Coops,

Thanks for replying. I'm really looking for someone to hold me accountable for working out 5-6 times a week (I tend to wimp out & only actually go 3 times a week). I would be happy to help you be accountable for your workouts as well. I'm also trying to get back to how I was eating in the beginning. Lately, I've been having too many treats, to the point that they really aren't treats, but are just how I am eating every day. Maybe we could message each other at the end of each day (or at the beginning of each day) with reports on how we did with workouts and eating for that day or the day prior?

Hey Ladies,

Maybe we can do daily updates to each other? I think it would help me if I had to be more accountable about what I'm eating and how often I'm exercising. It wouldn't have to be anything too extensive. I'm aiming to hit the gym at least 5 days a week. I'd love to make my goal weight by summer, but it has been SLOW going the last couple months, so I'm not sure how realistic that is at this point. :-)

      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!!
