That's awesome! One small victory at a time.

I am pre-surgery but have been really trying to change eating behaviours before hand. I just got back from a vacation where I didn't really restrict any foods. I ate whatever I wanted, but not in a bingey sort of way that I am use to on vacation - it wasn't a full out splurge, but I still ate a lot of stuff of my norm.

Today is day one back - already hit the gym and ate a healthy breakfast. Time for a healthy lunch.

It's so liberating not to be so hard on myself. I remember I use to feel so guilty and mad at myself for indulging...some how I think I'm breaking free of that thinking.

my journey has been far from typical!

i got pregnant three months after surgery which made eating VERY tricky and portions HAD to increase and physically i couldnt do it... i lost 34 lbs while pregnant and since my sons birth, i lost more weight, however life took over (not an excuse).. BUT ive not been super hard on myself because you know what?? LIFE HAPPENS lol... and im STILL 109238 steps ahead of where i was not even two years ago. I am just over 18 months out and still feel great. hoping to get to onederland by my bday sept 12
