From a thought to 2 years out

This is something that you have to truly believe in

I think believing in my sleeve is the missing piece right now.....I felt that way about my lap band and it did work. I just thought I wouldn't feel hungry right now and so limited, especially this time of year. Do u feel full when u start to really eat or is it just a mind of matter?

I feel full when I eat. My plate is a dessert plate not a regular plate. When I started this road trip I was eating off a full size plate. I felt horrible because my mind caught in late that I was full. So I was always feeling some kinda way after I ate. So than I went to a dessert plate now I eat a feel fine I can always get more food but I can't take away that feeling of over eating

Ok I will try to use a smaller plate. I do find that I overeat before my stomach realizes that I'm full then I have a stomach ache many times. I think I need to pay attention to my portions and making sure I get in enough Protein. I've been feeling dizzy lately and I'm not sure what is causing it.

Your body is going through a lot of changes. Make sure you eat and have Snacks with you just in case. I've been there. Your body is needing more but the trick is not to over eat. That's why smaller plates more often is the key

This story is so motivating! I'm 5-5 and am currently wearing a size 20, I am amazed at the thought that with work I could end up with a story similar to yours????.

Everyone is different. But if you are willing to put in the work( getting you dates and appointments In order) yes you will get there as well. We all have demons to slay for us to get where we need to be health wise. I am glad I can share and maybe help someone alone the way
