Oh! All i could think of was

🎶 somewhere over the rainbow🎶

when I saw this... Enjoy life, do 10 jumping jacks, grudgingly have some kale, partake in *cardio*, eat a carrot, stress less- Balance...

Aloha!

This travel is cutting into my cardio! :P

Just reviews Dr Angela Bosworth €Dr Boz) from YOU- Tube, much if what she says bears much truth, I know, now a little more about me to keto/low inflammatory diets. Am I ready to jump on this bandwagon and go to IF. Not quite yet, still hsvebto have my,pouch accept a more varied diet. But Much food for THOUGHT!

Oh @sillykitty hang in there - we are currently two peas in a pod. Your traveling job is making it souch harder for you.

I am in for 3#s but think I can manage better this week. I need to refocus on my reasons for wanting to lose the next 20-30.

Thanks ...

I mean, it's easy to use the traveling as an excuse. But it is entirely possible to make good choices, even while traveling for work. I'm just not motivated to do so right now. :unsure:

own it baby!!! :) Honestly, I think we all have times like this. And we all knew you were facing a challenging month going into it! So really, no guilt, no beatings--only enjoyment during this season. Then get back and get serious. I think maybe the thing that got most of us (at least me for sure) to the Obesity Ball is that I had TOO many of those times back to back until I just lost all will to try...So the danger lies in not being able to stem that tide and turn your motivation back on when you get back to some semblance of normalcy.

You can do this girl...think of the cardio! ;) :D

Thanks @FluffyChix

I am glad that this does feel like a temporary f*ck it phase, and not a long term, who gives a crap type thing. I am confident that after I come back from vacay, I'll be able to get back on the wagon, or at least make healthy choices a majority of the time.

I think it's really hard to get in "discipline" mode with a vacay on the horizon. I just feel like "why bother". I tend to be short-sighted that way - sigh 😦

Sigh... this weekend was supposed to be 3 days, 2 nights of camping and hiking. It ended up raining or being SUPER foggy because we were no lie, chilling out in a cloud. Our camp was about 2200 feet above sea level. Great views typically... lots of good hiking, but with how wet and just totally soaked everything was, my buddy and I only got in 1, 2 mile with only like 300 - 500 feet of elevation change. The good thing though, as this was a trial run for when we go to Maine for when we climb Katahdin, I was able to pack for my new diet and didn't have much issue at all... I tried not to poo for a bit... the burger we had sunday night did NOT want to hang around... so I was forced to use the pit toilet... but other than that little issue... and the rain, things went well. Except I gained like 2 lbs. womp womp

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

        Good Luck this procedure is well worth it I am down to 249.6 lb please continue with the process..

      2. Selina333

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

    • LeighaTR

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜
