Need help to not slip



Recommended Posts

I started out having a great weekend and then Saturday night it went down hill fast. Now since then all I do is think about food and this morning I caved in and ate a hash brown and a blueberry muffin. I am so upset with myself. Right now I am just so stressed and don't know how to get past it. It is going to take a lot for my husband and I to get back to where we were and I am afraid until then I am going to keep caving in.

I think I'm missing a lot of information.

Why is this a world-ending disaster?

(Just asking, not judging.)

Don't let the negativity take you further down. Make tomorrow - or your next meal - an opportunity to turn things around. My advice it to stay away from carbs as they (for me and many others at least) will trigger you to crave more. Try to re-establish your good habits that helped you lose so much weight - such as no snacking, high Protein meals, limit sweets/high fat foods, etc. You have a tool now that will help you get back on track. You've done so well - give yourself credit for all the great work and your ability to get back on track. You can do it!

You fall off, you get up and get right back on that bicycle! I have not had the surgery yet, and already I am spending a lot of time worrying about failing....gotta' stop that and spend more time praying about it. Prayers going up for you too!

You ate more than you wanted on one day. One day is not going to make or break you. Look at how many days you've been on your journey and commit to do better each day. Forget about eating the muffin and the hash browns because you can't change it now and beating yourself up about it is just going to bring negativity in and you don't need it.

Stay on track and it'll be nothing but a "I slipped once, too!" story you can tell to someone else who needs to hear about success.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
