My confessions....

I confess that I have a cherry dr pepper once a day...every day...takes all day to drink it, but I get it done.

....that I dont get all my Protein or Water in...and I dont try

....that at times I really wish I had my whole stomach back so I can finish a sandwich.

.... I get extremely irritated with the people on the blog that gets so upset at the thought of a donut or a cookie... I never intended to give up my favorite foods just to limit my consumption.

.... And finally I confess I love absolutely love this site since Fishy was banned!!

A daily dose of Miralax will keep it soft and not cause cramps. Make sure you keep you fluids up

I'm four months out and I confess:

1. That I love my sleeve and I love being down 4 sizes!

2. That I have been very moody at times with my hubby and kids, and then it makes me mad when they look at me like I'm crazy!

3. That I drink coffee on the weekends!

4. That I do not exercise as much as I should.

5. That I'm obesessed with tracking in myfitnesspal and what the scale says!

6. That I know I talk about my food, what is healthy to eat, stalls, Water, Protein, too much with people who have not had surgery, i.e. friends, family and at work and I have to tell myslef to just stop!

7. That when we are out to eat and I look at what other people have on their plates it grosses me out!

8. That this is the best thing I have ever done for myself!

He was a rotten person who was super rude to everyone. Nothing he posted was helpful or constructive. A slew of people reported him and he got kicked out

I confess that I'm having a really bad day and am going to confess my negative thoughts.

I confess that it really ticks me off that I have to count and track everything I put in my mouth, thats what I hatred about dieting before surgery

I confess that it really ticks me off that I'm only a month out and an in my second stall, what gives?!

I confess that I want to stuff my face with a sackful of Krystal burgers, large chili cheese fries, and a large coke and it ticks me off that I can't

I confess that I thank God that I can't stuff my face anymore

I confess that it's 'that' time of the month and I realize that's where these feelings are stemming from

Ok, thx, I feel better

So don't...

I don't. It would drive me insane, and I have no intention of (hopefully) living another 50 years and having to count everything that goes in my mouth. :)

Yeah, I'm not good at it and have tried all the different websites and bought journals that are supposed to make it easy but blah. I've been trying because everyone says to track it, up Proteins, up Water, lower carbs, etc to break a stall. But dang, I lost weight before surgery doing all that without having these stupid stalls. Frustrating!

I confess I am afraid to eat. I don't know if I am Eating too quickly? But it hurts when I eat. I only feel good with smoothies or other soft foods. I am 4 months out. Is anyone else experiencing this?

      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? 🤷‍♀️
