Mondays Weigh In
No weight loss this week and feeling rather glum about it. I have hit another stall and it hard because I know it could be weeks again before i lose. I tend to lose 5-7 lbs overnite and then nothing for weeks. I wish I was one of those people who just lost consistently.
It is hard to stay focused when I work out so hard and eat so little. I know i have not gotten in my protein and I have only myself to blame. Also, I read something on the VSG forum about someone who is a light-weight and just starting her journey. This lady weighs less than I do right now. She called herself a fat pig and said she felt disgusting. I just felt so low when i read this. I guess it's just a hard time right now in my weight loss journey. I know I will feel different soon. I guess we all go through this. Enough of this pity party.
I am thankful for all of you this day. What would I have done without your support?

2 weeks of training and weight not moving. Well no it is moving up one day, down the other, but not DOWN. But these last 4 days I couldn 't hit the gym and the scale started to go down this morning. It is really hard on me as it sends the message that training is bad for my weight loss. (((((
Now I don't feel AT ALL like going to the gym this morning ((((
First time a loss makes me feel so freaking sad
Have a good week. I personnally will have a "fighting my personnal demons week". Don't know yet who will win the battle. The "knowledgable women" ( who knows training IS good) or the "number women" (who wants the weight to go down badly)
Have a good week and hope it's better than mine! My beginning is not great
And I have to write this down, I might even start a post n that, you know just to feel accountable for it in front of you guys, I GO TO BED WAYYYYYYYY TO LATE!

Karine, You need a pedicure or a massage or something. I think you are way too hard on yourself. Sending you relaxing vibes!
Hi Phatchick,
I am pre-op but I just wanted to reply to your post because it sounds exactly like how I am feeling today. I am 355 (give or take a few) right now and I feel huge. When I hear other people who only have a 100 or less pounds to lose saying how bad they feel, it really does make me sad. I should probably lose 200 pounds... that's the size of my husband!! It makes me feel horrible and at this point in my life, I can't stand looking in the mirror or putting on clothes or having to go pretty much anywhere. We are going to my husband's parents house this week and I don't want to go. I know after my surgery I will feel so much better but it feels like it will take so long to get comfortable in my skin again. It almost feels hopeless right now. So I feel your pain this morning. It's a gray day outside and I am trying to stay positive but right now a pity party is happening in my head too.
I hope we get out of our funks and have a great day!!

I was there too but you can't look at what everyone else is doing. This is your life your journey. I know you don't want to deal with the Thanksgiving day madness but you can do this. There are things that are good to eat...like Turkey...and Turkey. : ) Just do your best. That's all we can do...if you slip up and make a mistake...not a problem...you get to keep trying.
Kitty Karin,
I am also going to my in-laws for the holiday. Not my favorite. But they are so wonderful and I love them. Who knows how many more we will have together. They are in their late 70's.
I had to lose 175 lbs when I began this journey. Now I have about 75 to lose. You can do this I promise.
This time next year you will be a skinny chick and your weight issues will be a mere memory. Hang in there Kitty! Best, Sharon
