Monday weigh-in...
Hi guys, just got back from another visit to my folks place in Québec city. We are vacationing at home in my beautiful town of Gaspé for the next few years.....
. I need to pay off my WLS bill! LOL. It is still worth every penny I paid. Why you may ask? Cause, I AM AT GOAL! 165 friggin pounds! I did it guys. I am a normal BMI and I achieved it exactly 11 months to the day of surgery. YEAH!YEAH!YEAH!.
Diane you are such an inspiration. I am still struggling with exercise with my heart issues. I didn't get great news with my last visit at the cardiologist a couple of weeks ago. My meds causes me such fatigue that I just find it hard to work and do chores. My mini goal this fall is to get back to the gym a couple of times a week for weight training. I need to strengthen my muscles and bone mass as I have lost alot of it with wl despite my fidelity with my protein. Congrats on your achievement. You most certainly deserve it. I empathize with you with the lack of understanding from others when we reach our mini goals and our NSV. There are so many things I can so easily do now that I couldn't before and after a while I just express my joys to myself as others do understand what the big deal is. My family is at a stage where they keep warning me to stop losing weight. That I am now too thin! Go figure!
Cindy, you are doing great. Every victory whether it is NSV or not is a victory and we need to claim and rejoice it. I have no children and find it hard to find time to workout. I know it is something I need to keep working on but I promised myself to stop beating myself up about it. I have health issues, you have children, we all have stuff going on in our lives. I choose to start with weight loss, learning new eating habits, exercising more outdoors, increasing activity levels around the house and outdoors and once I master that then I will work on a work out goal. I think just losing weight and adapting to this surgery is change enough. I want this surgery to succeed and I am struggling with the self doubt demons lodged deep inside saying I can't maintain this. It is exhausting but part of the process of change. Have a great week guys and sorry for my rambling. Missed you all I guess
