Confession time, I did something bad.

So, I've been pretty good so far (6 weeks post) and have kept my sugars really low but today I blew it. I had 1/8 cup of soft serve ice cream :(

I feel like a total failure and I'm so disappointed in myself!

Just needed to confess to someone!

Sounds like you are doing fantastic! I completely understand the guilt but this journey is a marathon. So you tripped on a rock (and feel into some ice cream). Keep running and you won't even remember mid way through. Good luck!

I had an twice this week because I was having my period and the sweet tooth was out of control. I have lost 3 pounds in the last three days. Just don't make it a daily thing and reduce the serving amount of you must must have it.

Margie are you still doing well after 7 yrs? I'm so curious about the surgery for people that have had it this long?

I sure am I had the lap band though, they didn't have the sleeve when I did mine, but the rules are the same or close. I was 295 when I had my surgery it took me 2 years to get to 160 and most recently I am 153. My lowest was 145 and I'm 5'7 so I looked bad. I'm 53 years old and it's life began 7 years ago when I was 46. Life is good. This picture of me is silly, it was me this Halloween. I dressed up and felt so silly and happy.

Every time I do this, which is on a daily basis I just put an extra 6 miles a day in.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
