Surgeon Testimonial

Eric S. Schlesinger, M.D., F.A.C.S
Dr Schlesinger is my new bariatric surgeon, and I think he's a real gem. He takes his time and I believe that he truly cares. I went and saw him today for my 1 year check up and he told me, that if I didn't lose another pound he would consider me a great success! He even said that my daughter and I were "trim". I was was high all day after that appointment I gotta tell you. thank you Dr S, you made my day!

16 Months Out
on August 20, 2009 11:57 am
OK, so I have to rat myself out.  I've had alot of upsetting things going on in my life as of late, IE; son in jail(and I put him there) biopsy of hard lymph node in my neck, etc.  I have been emotional eating lately.  I realized this when I had made a batch of Otter Bars on Saturday and they were gone by Tuesday.  First clue.  Then My DH and I went grocery shopping and he got some Skinny Cow Ice Cream bars and that Sunday night I ate 3, one right after the other.  And I wonder why the scale isn't moving.  Now, this is all new behavior but its starting to feel alot like "old" behavior, so I said to myself, "Self, you've got to knock this shit off right now, 'cause we're not going down that road again".  So, I am back to protein first, lotsa water. low carbs and around 1250 calories a day.  Oh yeah, and while I took this little foray into complete insanity the scale moved up to the 170's!  It is back into the high 160's now so I am definitely back on course.  I am determined to lose the rest of this weight, NO MATTER WHAT. I can do hard things like Shari says.  I have done hard things before and have rallied, and I will again.  Sometimes life is hard, but I can do hard things, I really can.  I am at 168 this morning just so you know.
