I'm so frustrated! [emoji30]



Recommended Posts

I had surgery 10-17-13. Still haven't reached my weight loss goal. I got down to 192. That's it. I've gained 40lbs back and am now at 226.

I can not get my behavior right. Drinking Water is like torture. I'm most likely dehydrated and exhausted.

@@Capricornrose You still have a wonderful tool that you can work with, and I think because you were honest that you're having trouble with the behavior part, you've already taken a big step to getting back on track, unlike so many who are in denial.

I'm sure you already know what you need to do but here's a reminder: Perhaps visit a NUT, ask him/her some getting back on track hints, keep a journal of every bite you eat (if you aren't already) so you can see your daily calorie/carbs, focus on Protein and yes yes, keep drinking your Water, and if you can't hit the gym every day, can always take a brief walk to get things going again.

I wish you the best luck on your continued journey!

Thank you for the feedback. I'm definitely going to keep working on trying to get it right.

What helps me with Water is the Zepherhills sport bottles......it's something about the squeeze bottles that makes drinking Water more "fun"...haha I also flavor my water with MIO drops. I like the lemonade best. Good luck to you.....you're doing good by just recognizing you need to do something different.....you'll get there.

I'll look that up. I've bought so many different kinds of Water containers it's not funny. I will be able to get my fluids in. Lol.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
