So, I have my 2 year appointment with my surgeon and nutritionist next week. I looked at my weight at my 1 year appointment and compared to this morning, I have gained about 5 pounds. Not horrible in a year. I have gotten away from tracking my steps and food so I am going to go back to wearing my FitBit. I also am going to go back to tracking my food in MyFitnessPal. I figure if I can track at least breakfast, lunch and snacks, this should make me more aware of what I am eating and where my protein, fat, sugar and fiber is to make sure I am eating what I am supposed to. I also need to be better about drinking water. I usually get about 75% of the suggested amount but I know that is not good enough. I also adjusted my goal weight. I really wanted to be under 200 pounds but for me, that is just not realistic. I would be satisfied with 225 and really happy with 215. I have to try and remember that this is a marathon and not a sprint; surgery was NOT the finish line and I cannot just coast. I still need to put in the effort to keep off the weight I worked so hard to lose!
