I confess....2018

[TakingABreak 2,733]

The I confess post is my absolute favorite, but you don't see it anymore in the feed. So I'd like to get one going again.

I confess that I had a kid's size movie theater popcorn last weekend. And I loved every kernel.

I confess that I bought a full length mirror because I'm becoming more vain.

I confess that I still wear larger clothes because it makes me feel thinner

I confess that.... *CRINGE* I look at larger people differently now. I used to empathize, but now I think to myself..."GET OFF YOUR BUTT!"

Sorry it's not amazing, but . . .

I confess that I'm getting pretty down because I still can't eat anything but soft, bland foods. I give myself the "we all progress at different speeds" lecture at least once a day, but it bites!

I am freshly sleeved, so my belly is still bruised and bloated.

But I love the full length mirror idea!

Real confessions will be posted when I have some

I confess myself and a certain person started out with a BMI within a point of each,other, have roughly the same activity level , eating foods with the same calorie level, othe person dropping weight like gangbusters, I'm plodding along with a pound pounda week if I'm lucky. What does the other person have I don't? 10 years younger and male. Grrrr👹

I felt that too until about the 2 month mark. Maybe you are just taking a little longer to adjust.

Try not to get down. You are only 10 weeks or so post op...I will be on pureed until at least 6 weeks post op and then it seems like it will be a slow process. Not everyone proceeds at the same pace, according to my book. Maybe discuss with the nutritionist what problems with what specific foods you are experiencing to get suggestions. You have lost almost 50 lbs.....focus on that :-)

But you,know youwere and he noticed?

My gym crush....like a 98% of the crush-worthy guys at my gym.....is gay.

Given the fact that I'm married...I suppose that's probably for the best:)

I confess....my plans changed today and I ended up doing something extremely naughty. My kiddo and I wanted to go to garage sales and plant shopping today, but it started raining and got really cold out (40's)... and my mother dropped over unexpectedly for coffee right when the kid came home.....so instead of shopping, we took a three generation spontaneous road trip to the casino and celebrated Mother's Day early...Vegas Style. Yes, I know...I am mommy of the year... *sigh* But we had fun, dammit.

We each took $40 in. Three hours of entertainment later....Kiddo got out of the casino with $60. I got skunked and made it out with $15. And my mom was the big winner, escaping the casino with $100.

My mom likes to play the games. We humor her. It's also funny as hell to watch all the old people hitting on each other during the day.

Kind of an odd one and I'm not sure how I feel about it yet. If I watch people eat it kind of disgusts me. It's usually if it's like sloppy eating with lots of big bites. Never even noticed it before and no it annoys / disgusts me. Spent a week with a friend and she eats constantly, eats everything and takes really big bites... wanted to kill her by the end.

A more typical one is I sometimes have days when I just don't care and kind of am 'off'. I always track, but on those days the physical limitation of what I can eat saves me..
