Gained 2lbs



Recommended Posts

Okay I had my 3rd fill and I gained 2lbs. Now I must accept resonsibility, because I know I have made the worse food choices this past six weeks. I've even been drinking, wine :thumbdown: and mojitos. Forgive me (I'm holding my head down in shame). Now I can two 1 of two things at this point. Feel sorry for myself or be greatful that it was only a 2lb weight gain and get off my butt and do what I know is right. I choose to get off my butt and do what I know is right. I didn't go through all this for nothing I tell you that. The surgery, time off of work, the money I've invested So today is a new day for me and I'm going to start making the right choices. and move forward. My birthday is July 23rd and I will be 43 years old. My current weight is 262,. My goal is to be at 225 by my birthday. That is a weight lost of 37lbs in 3.5 months. That is something that I should be able to do. So here I go...

Hope to hear from you ladies soon. Our board was one of the most happening spots and now I hear crickets when I sign on ...

Those cocktail calories are sneaky because they don't fill you up. Congratulations on taking evasive action at the 2 pound gain and I know you will be successful at arriving at your B'day goal.

I am SO glad you checked in!!!!!;) I was up 2 pounds too and I was doing the same thing drinking and eating out too much and not making wise choices and not exercising! You goals so great and I will check in daily too. Maybe we can post menus/journals to help with accountability!:thumbup:

Hello everyone!

I too have had some struggles. Its funny, cause you think that once you take the big step of having the surgery, is that you won't have the struggles with food. WRONG!!!! I am trying to do better about my food choices as well, but I have truly had my moments. The weight is moving so slllooooowww.

My birthday was last weekend, and I truly got it up, and I drunk more than I care to really discuss. :laugh:

I am back in the saddle now. I use to cook a lot of Soups. It really worked for me, especially during the weekday. So I am back slow cooking my meals. I plan to make a few different kinds, and freeze them. I don't want to have to count calories, but I am wondering is that really the best thing.

I also need to do my best to get on this site, cause it really helps. I guess I wished that there was much more discussion going on, but I have to put my part in to make that happen.

I will be here to offer support to all the sisters that need it, in hopes of getting some encouragement myself.

cheers

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
