I am going through a phase of why can't I lose faster, why did I do this, I want to eat a big fat sub sandwich but can't!! I know in my heart I did the right thing but sometimes I get so down on myself. Similar feelings to pre-op when I felt stuck in my fat body and wanted to make changes but never could stick to anything! I guess I thought this surgery would transform my body & mind. Well, my mind is still my worst enemy. I know I am losing and I try to keep a sense of humor about everything but I get sick of the question..."How much have you lost??" I don't even want to talk about it! Does anybody else go through this?

I had surgery 3/31/14 and I've lost 54 pounds. It's funny cause it's the same thing I would go through on weight watchers (I'm a lifetime member!) I would get frustrated and give up (when I was younger I lost 90lbs on WW but gained it back plus after my 15 year old son was born). I can feel those defeated feeling creeping in but I'm not sure why! I am doing OK. Like I said...my mind is my worst enemy!! I need to be more involved in these message boards to feel a part of this community. I think that will help. Thanks for posting!
