it has been a while since i logged on...much has changed. I am not sure how to navigate!!

 

Ok it has been 15 months since surgery and i NEED SOME MOTIVATION!!! HELP!!!!

 

I have lost about 50lbs...i know i could have lost alot more if i would of been more aggressive with my workouts and my fills. So far i have 7.6 CC ( i think) as of Sept 16th and just now i am starting to feel restriction. it is not constant, it comes and goes...so one day i am ok eating wild rice and the next i get stuck and the pain starts.

 

Since sept i have been going up and down ... my goal for New Years was to get below 230 lbs...i dont see that happening since on MOnday the scale said 235lbs. I have a Appt coming up pn the Dec 23rd...just in time for the Xmas feast. I am hoping for a small fill and i know i wond be eating any yummy pot roast, roasted chicken...ect

 

I need some advice... some motivation. Something to stop me from reaching for " crunchy carbs"

 

 

 

I have been going to the gym 2 times a week and doing some weight at home.I am focussing on my abdominal area since the SudoPrego belly has got to go! Winter is here and i kow i will be getting Cabin fever at home with my 3 young kids...so i need to keep busy ...staying away from teh kitchen

 

I know that i should be proud of what i have acomplished so far...after all it took me 10 years to gain the 100lbs that i am trying to loose in 2 years.

 

Hope everyone is well !!!

Hi there, I think you have done really awesome.. I think motivation is kind of a personal thing. What motivates me, may not motivate another..ONE hat has helped me to no end is this site and reading peoples comments, replys and blogs. I try to learn something from each one. I have even learned much from others admitted failures., I have learned through the members not to beat myself up so much. That a new spurt of motivation comes with new determination and resolve for success. I learned we are in a battle and that we may lose a round or two but that complete victory is attainable. We just need to stay in the fight. Part of the fight i believe is to stay in touch with this site as part of your excercise program. It's a mind, soul and spirit excercise that helps strengthen your motivation. Okay now, Put up you dukes and battle. Blessings

Plan, plan, plan! I find that is so important to my success. I find myself in trouble when I wait too long to eat. I either eat too fast or am tempted to put food in my mouth that is not going to give me the protein that I need. This is especially true when you have little ones around. It can get very distracting. As Dolly stated.....use this site as a resource it has been very helpful to me!:rolleyes:
