who cares if it is the easy way out?



Recommended Posts

I'm still in the very beginning stages where I'm still making decisions, Doc visits, Waiting for approval, sampling these God awful shakes. There maybe once was a time that even I viewed it as an "easy way out." So far, nothing about this process has been easy. Quite challenging, and I really don't expect it to get easier.

Agree 100 % it's not easy and most people could not handle what we have to go threw and to stick with it. I was always small tell I went on fertility to have a baby I gained and had prob so I know how people treat you different and how people think it's easy way out. I had a friend of mine say that to me and I'm like I want you to go 2 weeks with only liquids then come back to tell me it's easy

Whenever I hear the 'easy way out' thing, I want to challenge people who use washing machines and dryers to do their laundry. Don't they know they can cart it down to the river and beat it against rocks!

And then there are those who use freezers instead of killing their meat every day. Oh for shame, how lazy!

I won't even start on those who actually purchase clothes, completely made, from stores instead of milling their own linen from flax plants, and shearing their own sheep. Not their own sheep, that would be far too easy, wild sheep. They have to hunt and shear wild sheep for the authentic living not easy experience.

I do what is right for me. Without shame. Without excuses. And if someone thinks I took the easy way out? Then I ask them why they feel they need to choose the path not so easy?

      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! 😞
