November 18th anyone?



Recommended Posts

I struggled this weekends, it was really hard. I do better during the week because I'm at work and I'm very busy. To make things worse I have been sick. I just got finish telling myself you can do this, so I got up and got a Protein Drink. I want a bag of chips so bad right now. It is a mind thing. If I get to hungry, I have been eating eggs or broth with white chicken meat in it. In my house Sunday is Pasta night, this was the worse night yet. I love, no, I am addicted to pasta. ????. Not being able to eat pasta last night made me very depressed ????. It even made me rethink about having the procedure. I went to my room closed the door and I survived. 10 more days, seems so long. I have lost 15 pounds already.

I keep getting the pre surgery jitters and I haven't even started the liquid diet yet. I focus instead on all the things I want to do such as learning to ride a bike in the spring time, attend a baseball game without worrying about how uncomfortable I would be sitting, have the energy to *do* things again. I know I can do it. I lost 70 pounds on weight watchers and was able to keep it off for about 2 years. I have made a lot of healthy life choices such as giving up soda. My main weakness was not being able to stop after a reasonable plate at buffets and with food I love. This is a tool to help me with that.

I am Nov. 17th. Extremely excited but very nervous as well. What kind of fears or worry does everyone have? I have felt like I have been grieving food. Crazy or has anyone else?

      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.
