Long year since last post
May 10, 2013
This has been a crazy year. Found love and lost it, well, probably never had it in the first place but I miss him. Weight loss has stalled at 147-145 lbs. Have lost the ambition to stay on track and maintain motivation. Started slipping and letting cravings take over my life. I have taken some steps to get back on track but I have a long way to go to feel in control again. With all the crazy and horrible year I have had (epic stress and trauma over the last year), its a good thing I was earlier into the WLS or I would have fallen off the bandwagon all together. Goals for the next couple of months included:
- Increase exercise and activity
- Find local connections and support network
- Maintain follow up with my doctor
- Document foods I injects and make adjustments as required.
One of the goals there is not to lost weight but I feel that if I do get back on track, it will come naturally. In terms of unexpected upside of the WLS, I no longer suffer from IBS. For that, I am grateful. I just seek to have more control over what I eat and improve my overall mental and physical wellness after my year from hell. Too many details to share in a blog but will be glad to see things swing to the positive for a change.
