New Here, Needing Support

[shannon 1]

My name is Shannon. My gastric by pass was on December 27,2011. I have lost 95 lbs. I have done great until the past two weeks. I have had some issues come up that has put a lot of stress on me. I haven't lost any weight in two weeks and I'm not eating right. I have noticed I have been grabbing whatever to eat. I also haven't been to the gym. I am starting back on Monday going to the gym and I have started eating right today. I am so glad I found this app.

Hi Shannon. Welcome. I'm still pre surg so I haven't had this yet. I'm sure many have had this. We've all had it happen dieting. Just need a jump start and going to gym is one of those ways. So good for you. Support groups are also a big help. Face to face, phone, web, whatever you can do. You'll do fine.

Sending support and strength!

Shannon,

Great that you're here! I'm excited to hear about how you're doing, because I'm nervous about what will happen in the future, when we forget to think about how important our health is. It's what got us into trouble in the first place, right? Never taking the time for us and our need to keep healthy.

Breathe...then make YOU your first priority. If you can, substitute a meal with a Protein Shake or drink. Make sure you're getting all your Protein for fuel, and all of your fluids to flush your body clean! And don't forget your vitamins!

...I will be pulling for you! I had bypass April 30th of this year and am down 45 lbs. Another 90 to go!
