Describe your behavioral and emotional battle with weight control before learning about bariatric surgery.
Battle seems to be such a little word for such a big problem I have had most of my life. Growing up always being the biggest kid in class, slowing down everyone else on my teams in sports. Deciding to try this and that to only fail at it all. A feeling of lonliness when it came to understanding from other people. It has been hard finding medical help through doctors until finally meeting someone that didn't judge and instead listened to my needs.

The Waiting Game...still in Motion!!
posted on 2/2/12 5:58 am
So 22 more sleeps until my next set of appointments I am so looking forward to this. Some days are worse than others when it comes to patience but the positive attitude that I have promised myself I would try to keep is on level. Other than the crazy dreams/nightmares I have been having things are good.

My Dear Hubby and Co-workers keep telling me that I am doing great and it looks like I have lost weight. The scale doesn't say so but my clothes kinda do. Just kinda. I so can't wait until I can say I am on the bench with the rest of the Winning Losers LOL.

I have bought the magic bullet to make my smoothies and shakes that much better. Also went out and bought a couple scoops of the unflavoured protein powder (bulk barn) to add to them to start building my protein intake now. I am pretty sure I am in need of that extra boost.

I am also very proud of myself on the no pop/carbonated beverages in over a month now. Me the girl who hates water has been drinking unbelievable amounts of it. LOL Just yesterday alone I drank about 3 cups more than my co-worker that drinks lots of water during the day and that was in a 6 hour period. Its crazy how well I see myself doing. Now the next step is taking a few breaks at work and going for a walk around the building or even up and down the stairs a few times. Next goal set without even thinking about it haha.

As my new title says "the waiting game"....I may have a while before I get to the prize but the in motion part is whats getting me there!!

Love you all!!
