HELP, LOL
Hi all,
Well my daughter is coming home. The one that gave me a hard time with me having surgery. She is going to try to get me into weight lifting, HELP. My daughter texts me every Sat to see how much weight I have lost that week. Just one thing she says that bothers me. I talk about eating and she acts like sure because you can not eat much, like I am not working at it. I still have to make good or poor choices. Some days I really get the munchies, it scares me because I am afraid the old eating me is cominbg back. It is stress eating. I love my sleeve, I thank God for this tool.
Both my girls are coming in this weekend. One lives in Ga and the other MI. I am so excited to have both my girls home, plus 3 grand childern from my daughter in Ga. YEAAAAA!!!
Hope everyone is doing great.
God Bless All

I have a fear of bad choices too. I think it is natural. Keep it up.
As for your daughter, sometimes you need to stop talking to people about certain things. If she can't be respectful and stop being dismissive of your efforts, stop giving her updates. You teach people how to treat you. If you don't know how to tell her to stop it or shut up, then you stop setting her up for her negative comments.

I'm glad you are getting to see your daughters and I hope you have a great time together!
As for the one that keeps asking about your weight and says negative things about your sleeve -- it's time to draw some boundaries. Simply tell her that you are not comfortable with her asking about it all the time and that you would prefer to tell her about your progress in your own time and in your own way. If you are a stress eater you absolutely have to get rid of this major stressor in your life. You're the mom, she's the daughter; she needs to respect your boundary.

Yeah, I get a lot of people talking about "Well, if I got most of my stomach removed I could do it too". My response. Do it and stfu then lol.
I get the stress eating and the slip ups. A couple of months back my wife had a detached retina and had to have an emergency procedure in office that didn't work followed up by a an emergency surgery. The process was painful for her, obviously stressful for me as well (I would rather go through it myself than see my wife or son in pain), I ended up in the hospital cafeteria with a pack of cookies, a green Monster drink, and a bag of chips. I looked down at what was in my hands, started laughing, kept the cookies, put the other stuff back, and got a bottle of water lol.
As long as you know the old you can come back I think you'll be OK. Enjoy the time with your family and do your best to stay on track. It's a life long process :)
