No matter how many mistakes you make or how slow you progress, you are still way ahead of everyone who isn't trying

“Your journey has molded you for your greater good, and it was exactly what it needed to be. Don't think you've lost time. There is no short-cutting to life. It took each and every situation you have encountered to bring you to the now. And now is right on time.”

I find this do fitting at this time in my live waiting for my rny gp. I simply was not ready before to go thru it. So I did not waste time by not doing it before,and I need to remember that.

Alex and Ani have a bracelet that says "It's not a sprint, it's a marathon". I am getting it to mark the start of my weight loss and to motivate and inspire me. :-)

I've never been so embarrassed went for s follow up with my surgeon and because I haven't lost any we if weight since seeing him last over 2 mons. Ago he was angry . I've lost 75 pounds since October 1 2013 and haven't gained any and eating well, don't know what else to do??

If you're exercising to the best of your ability, eating right, etc. you're doing what you can. Angry? Aren't the doctor's supposed to be part of our support system?

That's what I said he said I should never drink a calorie ever ???

Protein drinks have calories. Is he talking soda? Punch? Tea? Etc. but if that's what's he's upset about if you took out your liquid calories and just drank Water does he think your going to drop?
