About to head off for an eleven day vacation with my husband, two "adult" daughters, and two teenage sons....... SHOULD BE INTERESTING!

I guess I'm writing this on this forum to help me COMMITT to doing the following......

1. Get to the gym at the resort four out of the six days there...... for a 45 minute cardio workout before heading to the amusement parks..... Why?

I have MORE ENERGY for the day on the days I work out.

2. Carry in my backpack: Protein Bars, individual bags of nuts, and Water bottles.< /p>

3. Share lunch and dinner options with my husband and/or kids, instead of ordering a whole entree, and not being able to take home the leftovers.

4. Take a bite or two off of my kid's daily buy of Micky Mouse Ice Cream bars, and not devour two or three a day on my own.

5. Take a vacation from myfitnesspal, and NOT log in on a daily basis, knowing that my trusty band won't let me overeat anyway.

6. Start my beach days off with a long walk and end my beach days with a long walk along the beach.

7. Enjoy being able to walk the parks, get on and off the rides, and take pictures with the kids, w/out the burden of the extra 125 pounds of weight I

had on my body the last time we did this trip.

8. Walk around the water parks in my size 12 bathing suit WITHOUT WEARING A COVER-UP ALL DAY.

I'll let y'all know how it goes........ YIPPPPEEEE !!!!!!!!!!!

@@HealthyNewMe have a WONDERFUL time on your vacation!

I just made a post every similar in regards to what I have to do to stay on course this summer, meaning modification and game plans. I wish I would've done what you just did and mapped it out BEFORE this weekend!!! I winged it and learned I just can't do that!

Again, have a wonderful time and enjoy every minute of it!!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
