I'm sure that your bariatric team would encourage you to keep seeing your counsellor - any help is a good thing. I would highly doubt they would ever ask you to stop seeing someone who is helping you with your issues.

Good morning, or what must feel like afternoon now CC!! You're such a good wife!! I wanted to do some cycling this monring on the recumbent bike but of the four of them in the cardio theatre only one works. It's too dark in there for the guy that was using it to see my death stare to get him to move. so I hopped on the elliptical for 40 minutes or so and then did some stretching.

Accountability: I was doing good until about 930 last night.....not going to stress about it but try and make better choices between now and the new year and seriously straighten my **** out then.

QOTD: I so remember kindergarten. Teacher was Mrs Mulder and on day two a new student came to class, her name was Karyn also (but I spell mine with an e). The teacher put her beside me and we became fast friends and stayed that way all through elementary school. We went to different high schools and then lost touch.

Eats today are much the same as yesterday (sort of). 2 yrs 7 mos

S - deli turkey, cheese string

D - chicken wings, cauliflower bake

Have an awesome day!

The exhaustion in part is because you have had major surgery. Don't worry about having low calories. Your body has it's fuel source in stored fat, and you want to access those stores. Make sure that you are staying hydrated, that will help with the tiredness. You have a very small pouch, so make sure that you measure everything and always eat protein first because that is what helps your body heal.

Pedal to the metal now until your reach your goal. No treat is worth stopping you from taking advantage of your honeymoon losing phase. Those things will still be there when you reach goal and then you can see what you can tolerate. You've got this.

Hi.

I find having some frozen dinners as back up helpful. I did find one lean cuisine which was protein and veggies - with 19g protein, low cal. (sometimes these are great to just grab to take to work for lunch)

Anyone have some to recommend?

Thanks!

Hey everybody,

I am looking for recommendations for family doctors who are open to WLS, lab work and post op care in the lower mainland.

Thanks so much in advance
