I KNOW I REALLY DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO BE IN A FUNK ABOUT BUT I WOKE UP IN ONE THIS MORNING. MAYBE IT'S JUST THE DREARY WEATHER. TODAY WAS A WEIGH IN DAY FOR ME AND THE SCALE DID NOT MOVE! I KNOW IT HAPPENS BUT I DON'T HAVE TO LIKE IT DO I? I HAVE BEEN WANTING TO EAT A RIB SO I TRIED ONE TONIGHT AND NO I HAVE THE FOAMIES!! I DON'TKNOW  MAYBE IT WAS HAVING TO GET UP AND GO TO WORK BUT SOMETHING HAS GOTTEN ME DOWN. I NEED SOME ENCOURAGEMENT OR A SWIFT KICK IN THE BUTT TO GET ME MOTIVATED AGAIN. I WORKED OUT THIS AFTERNOON AND THAT DIDN['T EVEN HELP ME. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?

I would say pull up the big girl panties but I am not a girl so i will just slap ya with my old Big Dan boxers.  Ribs have not bothered me, I have had 3 small ribs so far since surgery.  As for the motivation, this week is hard for a LOT of folks not just us WLS people.  It's the coming off of a 3 day weekend that I think causes it.  I have been dragging ass at school this week and its all I can do to stay awake in class I am so tired.  And today didnt help since it was FREAKING COLD AS THE ARTIC in the room (and outside).

BIG HUGS to you! Maybe it will help you to know I've been in a stall, too, so we can share the misery. ; )

Any time I try to eat anything fatty at ALL ... or that's been anywhere near fat, it sets like a rock. I just steer clear of those foods and it helps ... and also keeps me making healthier choices. 

Maybe if you open your windows and sit where the cool breeze is blowing, get a soft blanket, and a good book (or knitting in my case) or take a relaxing bubble bath, hopefully you'll feel much better.

I hope you feel better soon.  

Blessings and Best Wishes! Shelly

I know exactly what you're talking about.  I've been a cranky "B" at work this week but I'm blaming it on my bathroom issues!  Sometimes we just have a time like that and there doesn't have to be a reason!

But if you wanna cheer up, look at your ticker!  You are doing GREAT!

PS - Ribs make me sick!!!

Foamies,eh?  Those ribs just made me feel totally gross!  I paid 8 bucks for a meal I gave to a guy I work with.  I thought I'd have 3 or 4 meals but the banana tummy thought differently!  Oh well!  I made my co-worker really happy that day!

You have the right to have down days.  Do something nice for yourself and wait for tomorrow.  It might be a little bit of missing your old stand by me substitute for feelings -- FOOD Pull up those big girl panties and find a new addiction -- like doing something good for yourself !!!
