New Post-op Tip of The Day

Today's tip is about accountability. There are posts on BAF and other forums on OH everyday asking what you are eating, have you taken your vitamins, are you getting your water in and getting the right amount of protein in? Take advantage of those posts by either reading them or posting on them. Some people shy away from them because they are not making the right choices. If this is the case for you, then you should find a way to be accountable. I suggest journaling, support groups or finding a support person that you feel confident in sharing your information with. We all need help and this journey is just too hard to do alone. Find a phone buddy, email buddy and texting budding or whatever electronic device is easiest for you to use.

Please just take this seriously and know that we are here to help and you don't have to do this alone and if you don't want to put your business on the board that there are ways to get your questions answered.

thanks..I do find that the "accountability" discussion post from other members are wonderful..even though I'm pre-op I still try to make better eatting choices and this has helped me a bit.

Hey Ms. N:
Good to see you back! You are Valued, thanks for the tips.

Love these tips! Enjoyed them when I was pre-op and really look forward to them now that I am 3 weeks post op. I have even gone back to find some of the ones I read before.

Keep doing what you're doing PLEASE cuz you are right this journey is NOT any easy one and accountability will keep us all on track!

AMEN!   I've found that BAF'ers shoot straight - - -    ((OUCH))

If I'm not on task, I'm only hurting myself.  Nobody is forcing me to eat knick-knacks.  This is my body and it's all about choices.  If I win - I win with this group!  If I fail, I fail alone.

Thanks for the post Mammas!

how true I respond to those post even more when I mess up sort of my way of putting it out there so i can move on and get back on track cause once you tell ot talk about it,  then you  can  deal with it plus I don't expect people to just know I need support cause I'm struggling I need to let them know and people here  and on other OH site are very supportive and helpful
