When You Do Everything Right



Recommended Posts

Everything runs smooth, you feel great when you take small bites, eat the right foods and drink your liquids 30 mins after eating. You gonna have some bumps in the road when you allow your mind to tell you to have what you can't have or having to soon . But if you really want this to work you will do the work. I'm learning each day the Lord allows me to open my eyes. I'm learning and not deviating from the plan that's gonna give me more of a future / A healthy one at that. It gets hard sometimes but I think about where I was, and where I want to be and I go right instead of left. Knee pain I have no desire to have anymore, out of breath from just lacing up my shoes I don't want anymore, diabetes I don't want anymore and high blood I don't want anymore. But life I want to breath that. On yo a new healthy me. Some days get hard but the blessing is in the pressing

I hear ya. It all has to start somewhere. Without that first step in the right direction, how will you end up where you want to be?

Change is hard, but our previous choices weren't helping, so we have to change if we want to be healthy.

The farther away I get from surgery, (5months) the stress from change goes down. It's not all puppies and rainbows. But I am down 70lbs from surgery, fitting into jeans again, my rings are fitting and can walk longer. Sure I started a year ago at 429, and am a slow user compared to others that started at my surgery weight (389) but slow losing is still losing!

Preach on sisters,if it was easy there wouldn't be obesity but the wonderful thing about this is that the struggle is not all yours we are all in the same boat together and the forum is to be used to lift each other up when we are feeling low use every resource at your finger tips your care team this forum whatever it takes to get you through these hurdles always know we are here for each other to talk each other down off that ledge. We did not get this far to turn back now or to fail.

Amen you preach. I thank you all and like you said use the resources we have plenty here or our surgical team who is with us forever. Let's continue to uplift and build one another, because the world don't understand they look at it as we took a easy way out. No we didn't take a easy way out, our way just wasn't working so we got help just as others who get help with whatever is holding them back and damaging their health. Let's keep going forward. I appreciate you all

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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.
