Yesterday I posted a new post stating that I had a bad day with food . Your posts of encouragement helped me to plan a better day today..which I had. This a.m, I sat down and wrote down why I was on this journey. ..health, esteem, energy, etc. I also tried to figure out what triggered my emotional eating..I knew I was not hungry but nothing I ate felt satisfied me. I figured it was mostly due to tiredness. I had been traveling for two weeks and went to a training class on an accounting system. I was exhausted yesterday.. So far me...tiredness is a trigger for me to go to food. I was also anxious to start a new part time job. But I have to put things in perspective. I am more important than job and I need to take care of myself first. I also must plan to rest during my busy schedule. Thanks to those who posted on my "help" topic. It really helped me last evening and today to refocus on my weight loss journey.

GREAT JOB! Look at you becoming your own problem-solver! Fatigue is terrible for pushing us towards self-destruction. But you hit the nail on the head when you said that "nothing I ate satisfied me". Which meant you were craving something ELSE - a great night's sleep! Bravo, sister! You did it.

Now I'm going to make a nice warm Protein cappucino so I don't steal the bread & butter out of my 4 year old's hands while he eats! :)

      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! 😞
