Back at it
WORTH IT$9,900
So today is my first day back at it and I'm going to apologize for multiple posts now ! This site helps me a lot so I'm going to turn to you all frequently! Today has been a little tough but not so bad, I ate oatmeal and a half a banana for breakfast. I'm going through sugar withdrawals so I also ate a handful of nuts which help me a lot. I've already drank an entire bottle of water! I remembered that when I was doing the liver shrinking dies chicken broth helped me get through the withdrawals so I brought some to work with me! Hope everyone has a great day!

Still at a stall
Hi all! On my last update I was not doing so well! I found myself slipping right back into my old habits! Sugar is an addiction I will fight my whole life! I got back on this site to read my posts and to read all the reviews of you lovely people to remind myself of why I did surgery in the first place so that I won't be a failure! I'm a little over a year out and please believe me when I or others say that the surgery is just a tool! It is SO easy to go back to your habits especially because in the beginning you can make a bad choice or two and still loose weight, but eventually that one or two bad choices turn into five or six or so on. Again it is SO easy to go back to eating they old way! I've committed to myself to start over cut out all sugar and get the ball rolling again! This site really help the support is amazing! Thanks for listening!

It's been awhile since I've been in here and I have to admit I NEED HELP! I've slipped big time- I went on vacation about three weeks ago and ever since then I CAN NOT seem to get back on track! I still don't eat a lot but I am not making good choices ! I realize this and I have to change ! I haven't gains weight but I've only lost 2 lbs in the past two months! I need some encouragement please !

I am doing the same thing! I have lost 49 pounds in the almost 5 mo since surgery but the last month I have not lost anything! I feel like a failure and at a loss as to how to get back on track.... I was thinking about soups n liquids again and start over fresh like the beginning... What have you been doing the last few days to get back on track? You've done great by the way so don't give up!

Hello! I wanted to first say congratulations on the weight loss! Try not to be so hard on yourself. You've done great so far!
Regarding getting back on track, I've heard that making good food choices is critical. After that, exercise and being involved in a support group helps. Does your surgeon offer a support group? Good luck and stay positive! I'll be praying for you!
