Post-ops who have re-gained weight!

Hot Dayum double tre'  Its a BAF Revival....... can I hear a  AMEN.   Hallelujah.... sha na na sha na na sha na na

Boy now this is what I needed right here, right now.  I have already started trying to get it together.  

Biggest probs, vitamins and water and that is my first focus.
Second focus  LA fitness but after I find out about my physical therapy meanwhile a sister will walk even wit da jacked up foot.
Next....my surgeon is back in bizness...and I see him friday.
I am feeling good right now about my future.  I taught tonight on dream killers....Fear be one....My inner me is my enemy.
What I have got to do is 86 the diet drinks all of them......anything with artificial sweetners (can and will ) make you hold fat...Learnt dat in Nut class and did a research paper on it...... So bye bye sugar free shyte. 
Thank you Thank you Thank you....I have been encouraged.

Heyyyyyy BAFFFF!!!!!

I'm in!  I have regained 30 lbs.  I'm shamed because I talked all that stuff about nutrition and fitness then REGAINED. 

I gained weight after plastic surgery and started waking up at night and snacking.  I quit going to the gym  Most of all, I didn't check in on BAF.  BAF helped keep me right when I first got WLS.  Sooooooo.....I'm back and ready to make some changes.

Cheri

I got back on here just in time!! I have gained 40lbs in the last 18 months( was out of work for about 13 months), and i never reached goal in the first place.  So,i am so in!!!

I have already started making better snack choices and  adding more protein to my diet. Gotta get back to the basics. Also, am going back to drinking 1/2 my weight in water each day. LAWD HAVE MERCY! lol!

I'm two days late but i don't care! My plan...Lose 10-15 unwanted lns and get back toned like I was this time last year. My plan...GOD WILLING cut my wine and alcohol consumption and be consistent with my workouts. Lately I haven't been motivated until I couldn't get into some of my clothes. Now that's motivation for yo ass!!! I spend too much money to be giving my clothes away! Unnt Unn I ain't having it!

I have become the party QUEEN. PLEASE pray over my bad drinking habits!

Thanks!!!

I started my back on track movemet last Sept.  It wasn't easy but I had a couple of things going on in my life that gave me no other choice. I could have taken it in a really negative light but instead started looking at it like God has something big planned for me and my family and the direction I was heading was not what he had planned, so he had to put up some road signs.. WARNING me to make that U-Turn and head back in the right direction to get these pounds off.  Since then I have lost -80 pounds and I feel better.  I am looking to loose more but taking it one day at a time.  I am almost 5 years post-op. I have been through so much since and refuse to let that all be in vein. I have learned that this isn't a DIET, this is MY LIFE and I have moved the proteins and vitamins in my life. It is just like waking up everyday and brushing your teeth, it is habit and it must be done in order to maintain fresh breath, healthy teeth and gums.  To everyone that is struggling, hang in there.  It is NEVER to late to get back on track. Pick up your tool and start using it again.  Maybe it sounds easier said then done but it depends on how hard you are making it for your self.  My prayers go out to everyone who is trying hard to get back on track

Hey Cookie!!!!!

I really believe that's why I walked away from BAF...Cause my fat azz put on at least 25 pounds and to be here means either being a hypocrit (Telling newbies to do the right thing while I am not) or to have to be honest about my failings and honestly say I've been f'ing up.

So I suppose it's time to fess up and fix it!!!   SMH~That does not even sound convincing to me.

I need to put down the Vodka bottle and pick up the water bottle.
I need to stop beening a lazy azz and get back to walking.
I need to put down the chips and pick up some protein.

I need to Do IT right NOW.....Not tomorrow, or later.

Luv Y'all and miss you much!!!!!

Madame, Madame, Madame!  If I was near you, I would grab your pretty face and kiss you all over it!!  Your response brought tears to my eyes....literally.

I think we (including me) lost our focus over the years.  It's time that we get it back and take care of ourselves.  We only have one life and one body...we owe it ourselves to have the best life possible.

I'm cheering for you!  PLEASE cheer for me!

Girl I have always been a Cheerleader for you!!!
Your journey is INSPIRATIONAL!!!
You keep going and giving and living!!!
While you strive to make yourself better you bring all those around you up as well!!!!

When I stopped doing C & L I fell off the wagon HARD.
I needed to be held accountable for my actions.
I needed to strive for success and be honest not just in my eyes but in others.
I have been hiding from my faults and shortcomings.
But now I'm getting back in the game.

I just passed my 6 year surgiversary.
I thank God I'm not where I USED to be but BABEEE  I am so not where I WANT to be!

Thank You Cookie for waking me up!!!

I'm crying too!!

Hey Cookie...ok I am so late responding to this post but uh...here's one post-op *****gained and definitely working to get it off.  With that said:

* I now workout with a trainer twice a week and attend bootcamp classes

* I've stopped the "chips/soda" party I was on...OMG that was the hardest for me, but...I DID IT!!!!!

* Drink at minimum of 6 bottles of water a day (lawd I feel like I should just stay in the restroom)

* Eat 5 mini-meals a day (all healthy)

* Journal EVERYTHING I eat and keep a count of calories consumed.

Together WE CAN DO THIS...and I'm committed to getting this weight off!
