What is going on!

Jul 06, 2010

Let me start by saying that I am very happy with the weight that I have lost.  I am more energetic, I walk alot and I can easily do exercise without much convincing.  I am smaller than I was and feel good. 

My problem now is that I am not following what I eat, I know that I have to eat better, but I don't know if it is that I am bored or Iam  just sabatoging myself.  I am a positive person, I work hard, and strife to survive and I usually get things done.  For some reason when it comes to the weight issue I am not totally compliant with the way I eat. 

I don't have any motivation sometimes, and sometimes I do have motivation.  It is just a up and down situation that I am in.  I don't want to go back to what I use to be, I feel more positive about myself than I ever have been, yet I am not able to follow through when it comes to eating right.  Sometimes I do eat right, the whole day, but when I get home I totally eat what there is or what I want.  Not a good thing and for sure not something that I want to happen. 

There are many why's and why not's, but there are no set goals that I keep, I do keep them for a while until I get bored with myself.  My biggest issue is that I cried to get this surgery and now I am not following a proper menu to continue losing weight.  It is no ones fault, it is my fault, because I am the one putting food into my month, no one is forcing me.  Have to learn that in life I have to make decisions in order for me to succeed with the weight loss.  I am not getting any younger and at least I want to live the rest of my life healthier than I ever was before, but it is the hardest thing I have ever had to do.

I decided to come back to obesityhelp.org and get some feed back on other people like me to succeed where I am failing, hopefully there are people out there who feel like me.

The start of a new me!!!!

May 27, 2007

I have done my surgery and am four months out. I have lost 22 lbs and some inches:

Waist - 2 inches 
leg - 2 inches
arm - 2 inches
bra - 2 inches

my weight has always been even throughout my body. I am losing little by little.

I joined weight watchers and currently weighing 237 from 259 that I started with.  I am happy so far and I am happy that I am under 240 now. I have a long way to go but I believe now i will be able to do it.  I am starting to exercise more it is very hard because I have heel spurs and it keeps me from doing more exercise. I do try though. I do walk alot and challenge myself everyday more and more. 

I have had 2 restrictions done. I have some limitation to eating but I still do eat. Sometimes I get a little choked and that makes me stop right there and then. I try to eat good meals and I always think about what I am eating and what I should not be eating. It is a challenge and I am ready for that.  I have to remember not to eat so quickly because that is when I feel like iI can not breathe.

Well, anyway I am happy to be on this site and I am happy that I can come to this site for info and questions that I may have.
