Yesterday I was doing bad things to my pouchie!

Good morning everyone! Well, yesterday I was not the best in my eating and my pouchie and intestines let me know about it. I won't go into what I ate, but it wasn't the right stuff. I felt so awful and wished that I could throw it up. But no, instead my pouchie was aching in pain and my intestines were bloated with gas for a long time. This morning I'm a bit better. I vowed today to eat right and drink my water. I am going back to basics, with some restrictions for the next 3 days. I'm only going to have protein drinks - AchievOne for breakfast and dinner and the Stallone pudding for lunch. I know that this is drastic but I need to get myself back on track and give my pouchie a good rest. I don't want to feel that way again. It was awful. I wish I was a dumper. But I'm not!! So it goes to show you that even being one year out, life happens. It is what I do now that will determine whether or not I will be successful in my WLS journey. I am nipping this in the bud. I had to share this with you my friends on this board. It's not only the successes that are important; it's the struggles too. I will post daily on my progress for accountability! Thanks for listening! Hugs, Lucy

That's what I do when I get off track! Go back to protein and liquids, it seems to clear your body and mind up. Good luck I'll be rooting you on Lucy, you have done so great so far I think you will be ok! Wendy

Thanks Wendy. So far so good today. I know what is best for my pouch and have to work on giving it what it needs. I think the restrictions are good to get me back on track. Otherwise, I know how I am. It's so easy to slip off track and get back into the old habits. I don't and won't let that happen. Thanks for your support, Lucy
