I'm Just Saying.......



Recommended Posts

7.5 weeks out, 37 lbs down and 2.5 lbs from onderland....this is f'ing awesome! I feel great...I walk faster, my confidence, is back, I can wear my size 16 jeans, my depression has lifted....the world feels brighter....I feel like I GOT THIS! My sexy is back as once again....I am snapping necks when I am out and about........got my mojo back!

So....why did I in one day consume 1300 calories when in all the days prior, I could only get in 700! WTF! In my old life prior to my sleeve..,,this was my cycle....lose weight, get my mojo back, gain weight, get depressed, go in to hiding, shut the world out. I woke up this morning....acknowledged that the old self is still lurking and that alter ego has got to be control. I have to be on my game at all times....otherwise, she is coming back.

I'm just saying.....she's being checked and called out. I ain't NEVER going back again. I used my fat self as my crutch for many things......now it's time to stand strong and work to be all I can be! What an amazing journey I have just embarked on.....I am running on to see what the end will be....so glad I took the chance....went through the pain....cause it made me stronger, wiser and more self aware! High five and two snaps.....I got this! :)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
