Road to "TWOterville"



Recommended Posts

hehehe Molly, you're SO right! I bought myself 4 pieces of jewelry. I bought a big snowflake brouche and the addison necklace, a silver angel charm to put on my charm Bracelet and the Charm It ankle bracelet. I'm having a party June 21st so I can get some of the more expensive stuff.

I had an NSV at the party. I can now wear regular size bracelets! I tried on an 8" and it was way too big. She said "wow you have small wrists!" I said "Nobody has ever said that to me before!!!"

I worked the weekend but am loving this spring weather we're having and have been outside working and planting. After the long winter, it feels great to be outside in the sun.

Does anyone experience craving days? It might sound strange but I can go for months with no cravings and then a day like today happens along and I seem to crave certain foods... crunchy ones. LOL. I'm endulging in some 100 calorie chips as I've found satisfying a craving without binging allows me to stay on track.

Hey all...I've been MIA for awhile. I had a house full of family in for a visit. I read the last couple of pages to check in and see we're all pretty much in the same boat right now...stress=stress eating. I am SO doing badly right now with my diet. I feel so bloated and disgusting and need to get back to the gym and out of the junk food. What am I doing to myself? I have gone off the deep end and I hate it. So...I'm making a promise to myself to get back on track tomorrow. Anyone with me? I will drink my Water and eat sensibly and EXERCISE at least 30 minutes a day. I'm gaining like crazy...I refuse to check but based on how my pants feel I'd guess it's easily 10 pounds. UGH...I am so not proud of myself right now. I've got to fix this...junk food is so not worth this feeling!

Lapbandit, if anyone can get back on track I KNOW YOU CAN, you have the right mind frame already.

I've been making the right choices with my eating, but I have not been doing any exercising. I will start that today with you:D . You are the poster child for the band:biggrin1: Now get back up there.:whip:

I'm the opposite of you Tann. I'm exercising 5 days a week but not eating right. When I'm stressed I just turn to food. So I pop and oreo in my mouth without even thinking about it!

I'm going for a fill on Friday, hoping it will help.

Lapbandit, you're the best! We all know you'll get right back on track!

Elisabeth...I have major cravings! I try and find the healthy alternative to what I'm craving. Hasn't been working lately though. LOL!

Josette, congrats on the NSV girl! Doesn't it feel great to wear something in the "normal-sized" category?

OMG, what's an Oreo? LOL! It's been sooo damned long since I had one, I forget what they taste like! ;) I think the last one I had was at a potluck at work in January sometime...

I gotta go to the store and get some Oreos! I used to love the white chocolate covered ones, and the grasshopper ones. Mmmmmm, grasshopper Oreos....

Oh OK I've seen the green mint ones, I haven't tried them because I don't like chocolate and mint together. I like the golden ones too, haven't tried the fudge ones YET. Now I've got oreos on the brain....:faint:

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
