luv2plumb 315 Posted August 6, 2014 I had my surgery done on February 12, 2014 and lately I've been just laying in bed at night freaking myself out about all the scenarios of only having half a stomach""" there is no logic to this I know but the mind is a very powerful thing I worry when I step on the scale and it don't go down ""I think oh no it's not working for me anymore "" and I worry if it goes down thinking ""oh know I won't be able to stop this weight loss and I'm going to look like an stick figure this is a no win for me !!! I wonder if I'm the only one that's going thru this ?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

#MagicWithinme 173 Posted August 6, 2014 I never thought I would lose, 65-70 lbs , yet even now 100something weeks out, I still look in the mirror and think if I eat this or that , I'll blow up like the blueberry on Willy Wonka. we must remember we didn't gain the weight overnight or even loose it. One bad day , will be ok, but if you get into the old habit of tomorrow, tomorrow, that day might not ever come! Stay strong, it does get better. that's why we lost the weight to enjoy life, instead of worrying about it ! 4 BeagleLover, gourmetone, luv2plumb and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GODSON 20 Posted August 6, 2014 Your fine. Although im only 7 weeks in and 79 lbs down. You really need to start realizing that your in it for life. Slow and steady is as good as extremely fast weightloss. Actually when you think about it slower is better. You give your skin time to catch up and shrink. Sleever can expect .5 lbs to 1lbs per day lost. Changing routines is always good keeps the body guessing. liquid calories are your enemy. I have stalled 3 times... bad. Each stall lasted about a week. I feel your pain I just want to get to goal so I can finally change my wardrobe. 3 luv2plumb, Momof2inIowa and BeagleLover reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
