I confess:

1. That after 5 weeks, I am still scared of developing a leak, and think about it every day.

2. That I do not get in all of my fluids a day -- ever.

3. That I was very disappointed when I went for new pants and haven't gone down even one size after losing 31 lbs.

4. That I am grateful to have lost 31 lbs., but don't see it.

5. That I hardly ever exercise.

6. That I am addicted to VST!

I wanted to tell a relative Off! When they couldn't understand why I didn't want to Celebrate their birthday with a cake a month before their actual Birthdate! Because I'm no longer want cake.

I may not tell my Mother before my Surgery!

She worries! I don't need to be talked down.

I've made up my mind.

6. that I am really happy I found this site ;)

I think I confessed a couple months ago, now that I'm 6 months out I will confess some more. Please forgive me if I repeat some of my old confessions

1.) I really do not know how to shop for regular size clothes. I find it difficult. I'm in size 12 pants, fixing to be in 10s and I still have the mindset I did when wearing plus sizes

2.) Being thinner has not made my life easier as I thought it would

3.) Having dreams about smoking cigarettes are better dreams than the ones I have about sex. I miss smoking more than I miss food.

4.) I still hate having my picture taken

5.) I'm lonely, and need more friends

I really miss smoking...it would make this whole thing a lot easier to deal with! If they came out tomorrow with a cig that isn't bad for you, I'd fight my way to the front of the line! lol

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
