Maintainance Stage

Jun 19, 2012

So, here I am in the maintenance stage and things are going well.  I don't really think about surgery anymore.  this is just life now.  Food is eaten and enjoyed and I am not on a "diet". 

the 5 pound flex rule from the clinic is working out fine. I am not stressed at all, I am happy to go from 148 to 155.  Weighing myself everyday is like pinching myself cause I am dreaming. 

my only issue is the saggy skin, my stomach is fine, it shrunk back with no issue.  My legs are pretty ugly, but if I wear pants or long shorts, you can't even see the sag.  Bathing suit will be another issue, and my confidence level has to outshine everything cause surgery is not an option for me.

I do fine my hunger level is coming back, although I know I cannot physically eat large amounts, the type of food is my issue.  I have to get my head back into the game - not be so hard on myself and know that slipping is part of the process.

slip and then start again
eat carbs - then go back to healthy
eat "junk" then start again - yes the nachos and 2 potato chips are junk.
miss vitamins then start again
beat myself up - then start again.

I tell myself that if I managed to stay at 250 pounds for years, then surely I can stay at 150 for years.  I am not thinking about bounce back, I am not going to think about failure.  I am going to do this.

Those people that think they can have surgery and not be responsible, see you when you have gained back all your weight. 

I feel better.  I think I need to blog more often.

size Medium, 10-12 dress size, 34 DD - why won't I love myself - look what I accomplished - holy shit - look what I accomplished !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
