I lost my original journal. So here I am starting anew..

Highest weight before surgery 287

Current weight 220.

I could have lost more but I'm fighting my demons.

My weakness is Cookies and chips.< /p>

During a meal I will favor Protein and veggies. So it does keep me from gaining.

Still watching my sugar intake.

I find if I wait too long to eat, hunger makes my meal decisions.

Last night I ate too fast and wound up eating too fast-then getting sick, and then filling up on chips.

My bad habits are lurking right around the corner.

Whatever I decide to eat, I set a timer on my smart watch for 30 min before I allow myself liquid.< /p>

Like I said l, no gain. But not a single piund list in Feb.

Gave up dairy this week and lost 2 lbs. Finally honest with myself that Im lactose intolerant.

A few NSV: I can run up a flight of stairs. I'm outgrowing size 16 pants. I took my son to a bday party and was not self conscious and was somewhat social. My overall mood is good. Still happy amd proud of myself. :-D

You're doing great! Keep fighting those demons! If you feel like you need help, reach out to your NUT or talk to a therapist. That's what I plan to do when the going gets tough. I'm planning ahead for my fight! Because I know it'll come.

Keep up the good work!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
