    SHOULD I DO IT?

    You are scheduled, you must want to do it. My experience will not be your's however it was a simple uncomplicated surgery and uneventful recovery, although I had more pain than many write about. Smooth sailing when it comes to the VSG portion of health journey, But other medical issues haven't completely resolved themselves and there's no promise all will. quality of physical life/limitations have been improved. I'm grateful I took the risk.

    The Case for More Water

    I think I conditioned myself into not being a thirsty persons, lol, because I didn't want to be the co worker to use the bathroom constantly at a previous job, always needing coverage at crucial times.

    The Case for More Water

    I say this alot on the confession threads, I can't tolerate poor quality water. It has to be specific type in order for me to handle it. You may need to find your range/type also.

    The Case for More Water

    Nice, Does tea loading count? Lol I can never drink just one cup at a time But honestly intermittent fasting has really helped me to be super mindful of water/fluid intake again, I was getting the minimum always but I knew I could do better

    The Case for More Water

    I can’t date overweight people

    I could have written this same rant about anything that doesn't live up to my expectations,lol I think being specific/selective is a part of self care especially if you know it will derail you to be around bad habits ... I'm just happy this post wasn't as shallow as I thought it was going to be.

    Dark Urine

    Low water/fluid intake is likely the culprit, try increasing your water/fluid intake and see if the color changes (should change quickly, couple hours couple servings) if not contact your physician.

    I'm going to lecture you, lol. That hydration goal should be your focus for a bit ... being properly hydrated changes everything, the weight will fall off easily again when you start exceeding it https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4901052/ And congrats!!!!
