Hello everyone its been about 3 months since my surgery...it has been hard but worth the hard work.......I have not had any problems and I am grateful for that.......I was very upset when I got on the scale and it looked like I have not lost anything since my 2nd office visit......I have been doing everything I could do not to slip back to my bad eating habits......don't get me wrong it has been very hard but I am determined to succeed.....I have been eating everything right no soda's, no sugar and most importantly no junk food which is my biggest problem......but no matter what I do it never show on the scale.......so I pushed myself when it came to exercise still no show on the scale......so I started to look at my food harder to see what I was doing wrong but the only thing I saw wrong was the sugar in my fiber one bars.........then I thought maybe I am not eating enough to balance out the calories I am burning with exercise......I was really frustrated I could see the difference in my clothes, people at work and my family could see a difference but the scale said something totally different.......I could walk a hour without stopping, my panties came all the way up........I was like what in the hell is going on.........I started to think I am not going to lose the weight.......but I knew this was not a easy process I did not get this way over night and I was not going to lose it over night.........but all I could think about was the people I know who lost so much more then I have in the 1st three months and all I could see was failure failure failure......my poor kids are like hey we only have healthy stuff in the house what are we suppose to eat......they started to work on my fiber one products, putting sugar in my sugar free pudding, eating all of my sugar free snacks......my oldest went as far as to call my cousin and ask if she had any food because we did not have any good stuff to eat only fat free, sugar free and healthy stuff to eat and he could not take it anymore........

 

I was feeling really bad and started to wonder if I was ever going to lose anything.......My birthday is this Friday so I wanted to a new outfit.......so today I went to kohl's and I found some sweaters size 2X, went to Wal-Mart found some stretch jeans size 26 and a shirt 3x I was like hell yeah......I must be doing something right you see before surgery I was in a 26/28 and some 30's for pants I could not fit 28 stretch jeans from Wal-Mart and size 4x & 26/28 for tops.......I don't know if my scale is broken or if I am losing inches but I will take it.....it felt so damn good to see something even though I knew I was doing the right thing all I can do is not give up
