Stall so early! frustrated and depressed. PLS HELP!!!

Aww Thanks Estelle,  I was doing good until i hit this stall and started loosing my motivation and my mind.  Venting is good. This vent/cry for help really helped. ive gotton so much ideas,support, kick in the butt and just the encouragement that i need to keep fighting this battle. Tomorrow is a brand new day and a chance for me to work on all of the suggestions that ive gotton and keep up my program directives

Think failure and you will fail.  Think success and you will succeed.  Could you have graduated from high school if you repeatedly told yourself you would fail? At 179 pounds I decided I wasn't going to make the effort to lose anymore weight.  After losing15 pounds to plastic surgery, I decided that I could lose more.  Since then I have lose another two pounds without making any real effort. My mindset has changed and I am making better choices. As SMO people our journey is longer than most.  We need to embrace each little accomplishment and cheri****  Soon you will start to fee the weight loss.  I encourage you to enjoy it. If your depression starts to bother you, seek some relief.  Any surgery is hard on our brain chemicals.  Be kind to yourself and don't blame yourself for what Mother Nature controls.  Hugs and good wishes, Loris

Thanks Loris, Your so right i need to think success and i will succeed. I also need to be kinder to my self

You must be my long-lost stall sister!!!!  I had surgery 12/17 and I'm in the same boat...see my post "Discouraged" below.   So I took the advice, I'm off the scale and I'm just doing what I know I'm supposed to be doing.  I haven't a clue if I've lost even an ounce.  I see my surgeon in mid-March so my goal is to not weigh until then.   Just keep swimming, just keep swimming..... Love, Jana

OH SWEETIE,        TRY NOT TO LET IT GET YOU DOWN... WE HAVE ALL BEEN THERE DONE THAT AT SOME TIME AND PLACE IN THIS JOURNEY... ITS JUST HARD TO KEEP YOUR HEAD FOCUSED WHEN THAT HAPPENS... AND NEVER FEEL LIKE YOU HAVE TO COMPARE YOURSELF TO OTHERS... THAT ALONE WILL DRIVE YOU NUTS... IM STILL AMAZED AT HOW MEN LOSE SO DANG QUICK... UGH... YOU WILL SEE.... AFTERWHILE YOU WILL GET ROLLING AND THIS WILL BE A PAST THING... IT IS JUST SO EMOTIONAL ON YA I KNOW... AND DONT THINK JUST BECAUSE IT HAS SLOWED DOWN THAT IT WONT WORK FOR YOU TO BE WHERE YOU WANT TO END UP AT.... JUST HAVE FAITH AND HOLD ON.... HUGS MARGE

Thanks!
