AngelNov2016 4 Posted November 26, 2016 Hi everyone my name is Angel I'm 37 years old. Surgery date Nov 3rd 2016. My highest weight was 245 my pre op weight 235 my weight as of today is 206. I want to be more into this life changing event of eating healthy and paying attention to my body and its needs , but continue to struggle with realizing if I want to lose the weight and keep it off its going to take willpower and a genuine desire to become healthy. I find myself testing out what bad foods i can still eat and how much without causing my weight loss to haul. Does anyone have any suggestions for improvement in my eating habits and mental mind set to keep me on this journey of becoming physically fit and willpower to keep me losing.

SharBear617 146 Posted November 26, 2016 @AngelNov2016...first, you are gorgeous both before and after, gosh darn I wish I could wear hats as well as you do! Only advice I can offer on the willpower and changing habits, etc., is....One. Day. At. A. Time. Sometimes, not even 1 day at a time....it's one moment at a time....one CHOICE at a time. There is always choice...do I eat this? Or that? Am I physically hungry, or just mentally hungry/bored/stressed, etc. Should I workout, or sit on the couch watching TV? Has to be about choice, and priority. Prepare things in advance, choose movement over sitting whenever possible. Unfortunately there's no magic bullet for a healthy lifestyle, other than just doing it. Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Keep Protein in your possession at all times. And exercise, exercise, exercise. Know what to do when you feel stressed or overwhelmed ahead of time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
