Well, I live alone so I am usually cooking for one. I made Breakfast today and I will make dinner tonight. I did a Protein Shake for lunch so that doesn't count since I didn't make it. LOL. Resting day for the exercise challenge but I still went to the gym and did my 30 minutes cardio and some upper body stuff.

Hope everyone's having a great day!

10. What I like most about myself is that I never give up on myself.

11. Meal for 1 is a daily occurrence. Here is my dinner from last night

Didn’t take the after shot because I ate the other half avocado this morning with a pouch of tuna and the cottage cheese got all over everything so it was looking pretty messy.

Im in sorry coming in late on the 11 th of the month, just seen this.

Told today I have 4 more months till surgery will be scheduled. Wanting Bypass but Dr thinks I might have to have sleeve because I have a lot of scar tissue from previous surgeries😕
I’m walking 7,500-10,000 steps every day and working out with my hand weights and riding my stationary bike 5x a week.
I’m determined to get this weight off so I can ride my horses again, my right knee that I have had a lot of problems with already is ( starting ) to feel better. Maybe I won’t need a knee replacement after all🤔

Trying not to panic. I had my first gain today. I'm just shaking. Rationally, I knew this could happen. I know what I did. There were huge gourmet cupcakes at work. I had 2 of them, even though I felt sick eating them. Trying to tell myself, it will be okay. Start over today. That little devil on my shoulder is taunting me like he did in the past when I over ate. Taking deep breaths. #12 for today is perfect. Watch an old movie. I will watch "Sense and Sensibility" with Emma Thompson when I get home.

Every day is a new day, a chance to make the right choices and start again. Learn and move forward... you got this!

Day 12: watch an old movie

Well, my plans for today were derailed by a little boy with a fever and a cough, so I think we'll snuggle on the couch and watch Neverending Story.

dinner for one tonight. I bought a wild rice stuffed chicken breast, I had it once before and it felt so indulgent. I’ll eat about 2 tablespoons of the wild rice.




This challenge, my new Fitbit and going to the gym is working for me. I already hit my goal to get below 150. I was exactly 149 this morning. I’ve lost 7 pounds in the last month which is higher than normal since I’m close to my goal weight.




Thank you for this thread, it helped kick me into another gear.


Congratulations!!!! That is awesome! 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

I love Sense and Sensibility. That and Pride and Prejudice are two of my all time favs! And yesterday is over. Today is a new day 👍🏻

      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.
