❤ APRIL 2019 CHALLENGE❤



Recommended Posts

5 happy things:
1 My surgery and the attendant weight loss. I will never be ungrateful for the Tool-RNY- that is helping me achieve such a loss. Diets never did what this has!
2,) The love and support of Tomkitten , my son, he is my biggest cheerleader. I know I am not the easiest person to live with at times, especially when I went first into weight loss ketosis, as the fat started melting and all those hormones and other nasties got released I varied from crying like a broken pipe leaking, screaming and stomping around the house and complainIng there was nothing food-wise that appealed.
3 )Music- I like mostly all kinds, not hip- hop,that's more like disorganized screaming, I relax to Classical the best.
4) Bariatric Pal and the friends I have made here. It is nice to be accepted, even have my advice requested at times. When I came here I was scared,maybe I had but off more than I could chew, wanting Bariatric surgery at my age! But gradually I learned we are not jydgemental, I learned tricks and shortcuts that had worked for others and I grew more confident, when my surgery date came, I could face it with peace In. my ❤for I now knew things would be okay.
5) Nature in all its presentations. There is beauty all around us, waterfalls, flowers , sunlight, there is even beauty in urban settings, look at the buildings standing straight and tall, think of the people with plans that helped build each one. It is such a totally cool world we live in that I never could entertain thoughts of suicide, I want to hang around and see what happens next! Guess I am a curious beast, after all!

#27. Now this makes me wistful. My dream vacation would be back to say 2004 or 2005,both my late son and late husband would be still with me. I would be showing them parts of Ohio neither of them had seen before. Like the steeped churches in Northwestern Ohio. Each town has Saint's name, like St Henryand St Mary.They were all founded by German immigrants who came to the U.S.and Ohio looking for a better life.
And I would told them more often. just how much I loved them, oh I'm sure they sensed it but I could still have done it more.
Who could suspect in 2008 I would have had my son die and his father followed in 2012? Things were starting to go out way family-wise, Tomkitten was in his 20s, older brother was entering his 30s, so we were about finished raising them so could start enjoying them as co-adults. We thought we had all the time in the world to enjoy each other. I was still working at WallyWorld, so yes vacations would have to organized around my free time, but also I made enough money we could stay in hotels if we wanted instead of sleeping bags on the ground.
What would my Dram vacation be in 2019? Gee I dont quite know, as. I go on losing weight different facets of Me, long buried, are resurfacing. I'm no longer round-faced, my body is different, even the way I prepare and eat food is different, I am rebuilding Me and like many constuction projects, you may have blueprints but until you're finished you aren't sure what you've gotten into!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
