❤ JANUARY 2019 CHALLENGE ❤



Recommended Posts

Day 7) my motivation/ inspiration, provided by my SO's sister, is a turtle. Those little buggers may be slow, but they keep going. I think a turtle is going to be my mascot for the year! I'm just glad to be out running and working out again, no matter my speed. tapatalk_1545819333029.jpeg slow-turtle-funny-marathon-run-cartoon-women-s-t-shirt.jpeg

My motivation/inspiration is going to be to look back at all that I’ve accomplished these past 10 weeks: I had surgery, lost 40 lbs, exercising more frequently and always having a positive attitude towards myself.

Also, I feel very inspired and motivated reading your stories and that helps me a lot 😊

My motivation is my wedding gown. I now weigh what I did when I got married (30 years in July), but it still won't zip. Maybe that has to do with the 35 pounds worth of babies I delivered? Apparently stuff isn't in the same places 😳 Anyway, I'm close and would love to zip that sucker by July!

Catching up ...

Week 1 updated, only 3 days since I'm not playing along while traveling.

Successful getting my Protein in and logging all 3 days. Only had one day where I met all 4 goals of protein, fluids, Vitamins, and logging.

I think I need to streamline vitamins on day when I'm out of the house and busy. Maybe just do the multi's & Calcium, instead of the dozen or so pills I space out throughout the day. Hydration will probably not happen on busy days, cause I don't want to pee in random restrooms!

Day 6 I was at a new low weight of 134.8, and today, day 7 I'm at a new new low of 132.8 (which I don't necessarily want to be at)

My motivation - This is vain, but I love the way I look in clothes, I love my new skinnier face. I love shopping for normal sized cloths. I love not feeling like "the fat girl". I love wearing heels all day without any pain. Tons of others, but those are just off the top of my head.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
