I confess that it is still hard giving away my clothes that are too big. I confess I am worried about weight gain during my hospitalization after undergoing neurosurgery again for the second time in one year. I confess that I was very annoyed that my surgeon restricted my workouts pre-op' date=' which added to me not reaching and being stuck at 99lbs. I confess that I've had a few glasses of wine to prepare myself for going into the hospital in the morning. I confess I've been so stressed about surgery again that I haven't gotten in my usual Protein and Water intake over the last week.[/quote']

I wish you well. Take care and keep us posted.

I confess that I can't wait for the day that shaving my legs and "stuff" doesn't require two hours and an oxygen tank!

Can I keep going?

I confess that I can't wait to read more and more and more confessions from others!

[Cait12 52]

I confess that...

• I still mostly see myself as I looked pre-surgery.
  
• I compare myself to people having better progress.
  
• I don't give myself enough credit for what I have achieved (as proven by the first two confessions).
  
• I do give into cravings sometimes.
  
• I drink pop and Starbucks every so often. Not nearly as much as I used to, though.
  
• I think about food and eating more than I should.
  
• I need to be more strict in making sure I get in all of my Water and Protein everyday.
  
• Sometimes I wish that I can keep eating after my stomach tells me to stop.
  
• I am too focused on weighing myself and the number on the scale.< br />
• I'm afraid that I won't reach my goal.
