Friday: Matters of the Mind



Recommended Posts

There’s never a reason to give up…because you can’t. If things aren’t going right, think about what you can do to turn them around now. If you decide to “give up,” you’re just going to find yourself further back when you do try to get back on track. There’s no time like the present!

Needed this one today! I'm going into my 3 month post-op appointment on Monday and I'm feeling a little nervous. I don't want to compare myself with others (that is a rookie move that will leave me feeling horrible) but I'm not a super-satisfied with my progress. And that is for me to change and no one else. There are things I could be more diligent about - like Water consumption. I hate it and I know there have been several days where I just don't drink any. Like none. Really. My Protein consumption is not up to the 80g everyday. I used to be religious and now I'm like eh. These are all things I have the power to change. Imagine how pissed I would be if my success was determined by someone else?? I'd be knocking that person around saying chop chop whats the hold-up?! :) Point being... I'm not giving up!

      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! 😞
