Labor Day Wt loss Challenge- Sept. 7th



Recommended Posts

i am adding myself to the list! two weeks ago I was completely unfilled, and now after my body has healed (the doc had me do an upper GI and everything was normal)... well i am slowly starting again. i gained back about 3 pounds in 2 weeks, which i know could have been much worse so i am not that upset by it. the nurse added 2cc a few days ago and i have absolutely no restriction, but i am not going to push myself! instead, i plan on pushing myself more physically -- last thursday marked day 1 of my personal training for the summer! i meet with him about twice a week, and i have been working with him since right before i had my surgery so i trust him. just did a five mile walk/jog/run today... ready to work towards this next goal!

Hi Janesays! You are doing really good still - the unfill stuff is a little hard to take-- I know i went thru it too. But it was the best thing and you will be back on track soon enough. I found the unfill thing weird b/c somehow even though my wt crept up until I got refilled, then once i was back on track the wt just flew off! So there is a light at the end of the tunnel i promise.

thaaaanks kaninag, and hi capitolchick-- GOOD TO HEAR! you have no idea how great it is to hear from someone else who has gone through the same thing. this summer i am living by myself, and while i am working and taking classes, i have WAY more time on my hands to devote to bettering my health. like i already said i have a trainer, and have found lately that i have plenty of self-motivation to keep me eating healthy and small portions even without any restriction. i think something has finally clicked in my brain. i am still losing weight because of this, it just of course always feels slow! so im glad to hear that the weight flew off for you once you got back on track!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
