3 YEARS POST OP TODAY

 
Hello Family

GOD IS GOOD ... TODAY IS MY 3 YEAR ANNIVERSARY... I DID NOT REACH MY GOAL WEIGHT HOWEVER I AM FINE WITH WHAT I HAVE LOST ( I AM NOT GIVING UP)
( DAY OF SURGERY 431   TODAY - 244)  TOTAL LOST 187 POUNDS.  I HAD A 2 1/2 YEAR FIGHT TRYING TO GETTING SURGERY APPROVED BY MY INSURANCE COMPANY,  HOWEVERY MY PARTNER OF 13 YEARS PUT ME ON HER INSURANCE AND I WAS THEN APPROVED WITHIN DAYS.  I KNOW THAT ARE SOME HABITS THAT I HAVE PICKED BACK UP .

1.DRINKING WITH MY FOOD
2.NO WORKING OUT
3.SWEETS. (CHOCOLATE AND NOWLATERS)
4. NOT TAKING MY VITAMINS REGULARLY

MY GOAL WEIGHT WAS 180 POUNDS , I HAVE FAITH IN MY SELF THAT I WILL REACH MY GOAL WEIGHT, I JUST REALLY WISH THAT I CAN BE MOTIVATED AGAIN.  ANY TIPS.

I'm glad you checked in. You have done tremendous. Even though you may not have reached your goal weight, I'll bet your life is so much better then it was before. I'm sure you have more energy and enjoy being a part of life instead of being on the sidelines.

I know what you mean about some of the bad habits creeping back into our lives. I have been very good about not drinking while eating, I just got out of the habit of doing that and never picked it back up. I don't walk as much as I used to, but I still try to get out there and move more then I ever used to. I take my vitamins most every day. Again it is just a habid I got into and I stick with it every day.

What motivates me is that I want to always remember where I came from and I know I don't ever want to go back there again. Just keep your eye on the prize and for me the prize is a healthier and more active life.

Good luck to you in the future.


Take care, Rick
