It's Like They're Daring Me...

I read that (C25k) That's great! I'm on week one and I will be staying there for quite awhile! I'm not comfortable moving on until its easy for me.

I plan on proceeding with extreme caution as well. I'm still morbidly obese and don't want to hurt myself.

I'm right there with you! I'm doing it but no one needs to be a hero! Take it slow. :)

Girl grocery shopping was fun today. And then my skinny (underweight) 11 year old asked if I could buy him a pulled pork sandwich I almost jumped to kid as he sat in the backseat eating that! :P

It's going well actually almost done for the night and tomorrow is a normal day again. :) and my weight is finally moving again after two months!!!

What exactly did you do to get it moving again? Stalled 2 months.....DESPERATE:)

Some of the people here (much further out than me) and I have been discussing the 5:2 fasting method. It essentially eating your normal healthy amounts every week but 2 days out of the week tues and Thursday for us we eat 500 calories and make sure there is a fasting time of at least twelve hours before and after...

So Monday I don't eat after 7pm Tuesday 2 to three small meals starting at 10 am and eat dinner no later than 7 pm keeping the day at 500 total making wise Protein choices and pushing the water!

I'm not recommending it but its working out well so far :)

Is this to jump start weight-loss again or are you continuing it till at goal?

And I'm PMSing.

But I'm still resisting! Staying strong. Fighting the good fight. Avoiding the grocery store.

I'm thinking at the moment to keep up to see how it works as a way of life to break up the other days of a all day grazing mentality.

And I'm PMSing.

Girl PMSing and grocery store don't mix! :P

I know this thread is old, but I had to chime in on the Special K pastry things. I liked them- bought a big box. They are yummy...never did go crazy or eat more than one per day, but I will not get them again- I could be spending 100 calories on something that actually fills me up...that is all. Just don't need them.

What makes me mad is thats the the food industry plays into the obesity problem in America and pushes crap off as an "healthier" alternative.

And what makes me sad is that the average dumb American buys into it...

Don't even get me started on how the evil sales giants manipulate the vulnerabilities of the masses for the almighty dollar. Makes me sick.

* poses hands up in front of face*

Picture this, its late night television watching after a particularly difficult day of self loathing and there it appears... In all of its super-sheened, high definition glory, dripping with the cure- the fleeting satisfaction for what ails you... It's soooooooo beautiful.......

      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!!
