How are you doing Hun? You can do this! I had bypass 7 years ago and Im a Bariatric Coach now. Let me know if I can support you. I use to be 305 lbs. We all have struggles when it comes to weight loss and food even the "skinny" people :-) so dont be too hard on yourself.
It's an endurance contest, not a sprint. There will be up weeks, as well as down. The important thing is that you recognize and take corrective measures more quickly than you have in the past. The 5DPT will definitely help whip you into shape. Isn't it amazing how those carbs breed cravings? You can do this !
Girl, we are in the same boat except I have gained 6 lbs this month.. WTF... I haven't been eating a bunch of things I'm not suppose to ... I don't even wanna see what Thanksgiving is going to bring... I need to do the 5 day pouch test as well... please let me now how it goes.. :) Good luck!!!
Jay, at least you are taking accountability for your actions. 2lb gain in7 months post wls is not bad. but u no what u need to do to get back on track. i wish u well and get back in the gym asap. have a blessed turkey day!!! lol:))
Hey chica, 2lbs?! Ive been losing and gaining this whole time, so in my eyes you are pretty lucky. I know how frustrating it can be tho...But epic failure??? noooo way!! this is a progress and you know that. There will be up's and down's, that your body's way of helping you see what you are doing "right" or "wrong" You got this!!!
@MsMoxie22 thank yoU!... i just haven't been in a good place since halloween, so im trying my hardest to get back to basics.. but emotional eating and stress never helps.
What bothers me about his is you call yourself a failure, or failed this month!! March 30th you started your journey same as me..........and look how far you have come????? does that 7 months not count for anything? Pick yourself up and get back on the rules bandwagon and carry on!!! You will do it, I'm sure you don't want to go back in time to what you weighed in March pre surgery!!! Get that PMA, positive mental attitude happening girl!! You can do it!!! =D
@bigbeyoncechick we just need to hang in there.. it'll all work out.. im trying to go back to basics, but im an emotional eater and always stressed so it is really hard!
November is a rough month for me too. And Thanksgiving isnt even here!! I'm on a 3 week stall and it's killing me. Guess we gotta hang in there huh? *i am addicted to chicken tenderrrrrrs right now* lol just like you I am taking responsibility for my end. I had the Verticle Sleeve in July so it's up to me to make it work from here on. So good luck in your journey..we got this girl!!
