Soooo, I messed up



Recommended Posts

Yesterday was a BAD day for me. Not only did I stumble and eat something a shouldn't have, I also exceeded my suggested serving size for two of my meals. This bit me in the butt as I noted a several pound gain over the last two days.

What the hell is wrong with me??? Sorry, had to get that out.

I could never understand how eating 1 lb. of the wrong food, and I puts on 10 lbs. of weight.

I am real good at gaining and loosing weight. Been doing it my whole life.

We all go thru this. The best is start fresh again.

I know that many people immediately go back to diet 1-liquid for a few days when they slip; get's them back in that post-op groove

We all slip! Give yourself a break, pick yourself back up and move forward on the plan. You will feel much better once you are back on track.

Good luck!

The best thing to do when you fall off the wagon, is to pick yourself up and put yourself back on that wagon. Try journaling what is going on in your life at the times you feel weak or give in to temptation. Write down how you were feeling and anything that might in retrospect give you some clue into what your motivation for slipping up is so next time when you are in a similar situation you will recognize it and be able to handle it in a better more productive way.

Don't beat yourself up! We have all been there! Have yourself some herbal tea, close your eyes and remember how great it felt to have good news at the scale, that should do it. Believe in yourself, and forgive yourself [emoji56]

What NOT to do - BEAT YOURSELF UP! You did it, its over, move forward!

What TO do - Set yourself up for success instead of failure. Do your best to avoid situations that are going to cause you temptation - just for a couple of days. Get some extra exercise in. Concentrate on drinking an extra two glasses of Water. Try a new 'on plan' food or recipe to add interest to your diet. I find I often times mess up the most when I get bored with what I am eating. Changing it up (with good choices) makes eating exciting again. Finally, concentrate on just winning moments. I have times during the day, when I just have to keep telling myself that I need to get through the next half hour and then I can have whatever. Minutes turn into hours, hours turn into day. Winning days bring results. Remember, it is not the missteps or bad choices that we make here and there that are going to send us back to where we were, it is the choices we make every day.

Best of luck!

      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
