Hey guys...just checking into say hello! I was at 203 last week and am not getting on scales this week! I have a monthly visitor and no way I am taking the chance that scale is not in onederland or up because of water weight! Hope to be telling g yal I made it next week![emoji3][emoji106]

I was feeling the exact same way! My Nutritionist said to stop weighing everyday and not to believe everything you read on the blogs. People exaggerate. I was also not consuming enough calories. I am 6 weeks out and should be getting 600-800 a day. Towards high end if working out. I also lost a lot in first week. She said people who lose a lot up front slow down...but will catch up. Not weighing everyday and understanding this is my journey and it’s ok if different from others has helped a lot. You will also lose slower than people who have more to lose...so don’t compare yourself to others. I use Baritastic to log my food, water and exercise. I thought something was wrong with me because I could eat my suggested portion sizes when people on line talk about only getting in a bite or two. My Nut told me being able to consume that is great. It means you are healing quickly and will get the nutrition your body needs to exercise. Be patient...work the program and let us know if you need some encouragement! This works....we are baby’s! It will happen![emoji106][emoji7]

Hey guys...at 227 and down 29lbs. That was on Monday! Promised my NUT i would try to way less! Will use Wednesday as my weekly weigh in from now on. Traveled last week. Up my calories per my nut and 3 pounds dropped! Make sure you are getting enough food in. It makes a difference! Have a great weekend everyone![emoji7]

Yep he was good for a laugh on weigh in day! [emoji3] hope you are ok Lindsay....it would have definitely creeped me out!

[emoji173]️[emoji173]️[emoji173]️ thanks for the encouragement....definitely need buddies in this process! Could you have imagine is having this convo on weight watchers or something! We would be rock stars then! Gotta keep it all on perspective I guess! Not even a month yet [emoji3]!

Thanks....it’s hard not to compare your journey to others! There is a little voice inside me that says I will be the one this does not work for! I know I have to drown it out and trust the plan!! Thanks for the support! [emoji7]

Attitude has a lot to do with it! Recovery is temporary....and this change will be such a positive step to a healthy life! I have done great so far with very little pain. I went in with that mindset and I think that helps! Release the fear....everyone I have spoken to has had a bariatric procedure says it was the best decision of their life with no regrets! Like anything in life you just have to do the work! Follow post op instructions and know this is the beginning of something wonderful [emoji173]️[emoji173]️[emoji173]️
