Recommended Posts

Feeling guilty for not being able to stop sodas. I have surgery in less than two months. I can go a day without My Precious and then I have one...then two....maybe three cokes. Im becoming more active so im down a couple pounds but eating crap food too often. Why do I snack while reading especially if im reading about weight loss? Gotta get ahold of my eating habits. My dr office has behavior modification classes but they dont start until after surgery.

I completely understand. I was a soda fiend but knowing how dangerous it was after surgery I sorta just cut it cold turkey. I haven't had any since December. RARELY I will allow if I'm having a rum and diet coke. Maybe switch to diet first then slowly cut it out.

I snack too...cheezits are my weakness. I can eat a whole box and not realize it until I'm hitting plastic. It's terrible. Something I started to do was measure out a serving and put the box AWAY! Do you have a date yet?

I have been eating like it is the last supper! I am eating very bad like I am saying a long goodbye to food. I have done so much research and one study says that results are not related to food addiction.. Very promising. People don't think I'm 'fat enough' for surgery,, lol! Just pudgy I suppose. They don't get the hypertension and sleep apnea that I was able to stop with previous weight loss. I work out all the time and people tell me that is more important than being smaller. I am taking this journey for ME. I have a desk job and have gained over 50 lbs over the last 10 years. Ok,, vent over! Therapeutic!

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
