4 weeks out feeling positive



Recommended Posts

So I read everyday on this site. 90% of what I read is negative, for most people things are going to be ok.

I had major hernia surgery the same time I had my by pass surgery. I had to stay in the hospital five days. So my struggles are maybe not the same as others but I do have them.

I feel great, I’m able to walk everyday, get all my required Protein and Water down each day. Everyday seems better for me.

I feel my life is under control and moving in a positive direction. Life is not always fair, but when your given a second chance, you better grab hold and fight like hell to overcome your obstacles.

I wonder if you are reading in different places to me - overwhelmingly what I read here is positive. Tips, tricks, tools, successes and triumphs.

A few things gone wrong - every time followed by encouragement on putting it right.

I have got so much out of the great ideas on the recipes/food/nutrition forums. I love, at the moment, the fitness and exercise forum, as I try and step up my fitness.

Hugely positive place! Nice to add your news of good progress to add to the positivity total!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
