Fell Off Bad



Recommended Posts

No responses really required but I have fallen off really hard (eating the wrong things, bigger portion sizes, etc), so I'm using this post as a means to put out in the universe to get myself back on track! Might need to do a soft reset to get back in the habit. Mind over matter people!!

Changing one's entire way of eating is never easy and sometimes you'll fall off, but the important thing is getting yourself back on track. You can do it!

You can do this!! Admitting you need to get back on track is the first step, which you've already done!

Me too. You're not alone. We're human. You know what to do to get back on track and YOU CAN DO IT! I am getting myself back on track too. Stupid COVID messed up everything, didn't it?

Just pick yourself up and get going again. But think about it and try to learn from the experience. If you can learn what triggered the problem, you can figure out how to avoid another call. As long as you keep learning from failure, you set yourself up for success.

For example, I remember twice after riding my bike that I absolutely craved french fries. I gave in both times and got sick both times. Then I realized it was the salt I was actually craving. Once I added some electrolytes to my water bottle during rides, I never experienced that again. So try to think it through - was it boredom, stress, or something else? What can you do during those times rather than eat? One of my big temptations is munching while watching TV. Now I have some sewing hand work to finish up before Christmas and I do that instead of eating. So much more productive! You can do this. You are not alone.

It's about persistence, not perfection! Because this is a lifetime effort, it's almost guaranteed that we'll fall off at some point. It's what you do next that determines whether it's a minor blip or a major set-back. Sounds like you're on your way to getting back on track. :1313_thumbsup_tone4:

No one is perfect, slips happen. It's what you do next that counts. You recognize your mistake and learn from it. Then you get right back after it!

I’m right there with you. I’m two years out from a sleeve and have gained so much back. Going to reset and try to get my focus back to eating correctly. It’s so hard. This year has been bad but especially bad personally which I’ve used as an excuse.
We’ve done this before. We can get back on track again.

      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!!
