Lost 114 lbs. working on getting rid of a recent 10 lb regain...and WILL succeed!
And I also think that old saying applies to all of us. I think anyone considering something as serious as WLS has tried again and again to find the right way to lose weight and keep it off. And now we have found the tool that will help us reach that goal. That is so amazing. I love looking at the before and after photos on the different sites as they are SO encouraging. It's pretty hard to imagine that I can actually acheive that too, but I'm trying every day to visualize myself thin and healthy and eating and exercising like a thin healthy person. You know what- I think it's working! I'm nowhere near perfect but I have been questioning myself when I get that urge to eat. Am I really hungry? No? then don't eat, do something else!! And that's what I do! And that's not so easy because my house is FULL of food. I've given lots away but the rest will soon be gone because of my children and their friends. YAY!
I know the surgery is not going to change my desire to eat when stressed, so I am trying to work on that issue now beforehand and hope it gets easier with practice!
Hugs,
Rhonda
Hope if you try this, you find it to be helpful. It is one of the tactics we were taught as support group leaders. But I don't recall if it was from my training here at OH or the other training I took..
You are doing great! Keep up the good work. many don't even bother until after the surgery, so I can see that you are going to be a great success story!
