Back On Track Together
Is it wrong that I am anxious about my slowwww weight loss?
Well-so much is going on in my life like many of you, I struggle with additional health issues besides being overweight-When i had this surgery a little over two years ago i thought that I would at least be 200 pounds by now-I started out at 445- surgery day I was 427 and now i am 252-255. it fluctuates daily. I am having a hard time exercising due to my health issues but I do physical therapy three times a week. I think stress plays a huge part but when i look at myself in the morror sometimes- i still see that 400 pound woman and that's never who i was. So some days i wish my pouch was a lot smaller- like post-op smaller rather than what it is now. i mean don't get me wrong- it's not stretched or anything- i can eat like a normal healthy person now- but i am just anxious and irritated with this health condition and being in the house for so long-i am looking forward to losing those 50 pounds because i think i will feel much better- weight is a huge mental pressure.
One day at a time... one pound at a time. It is hard. I know it. But giving up is not an option. ...hugs...
