hi ascooke63
welcome to this site, how far are you on your new journey? have you started your pro-op testing yet? I've done mine and see surgeon on may4,12 and hope to get my surgery date.
I am like you I want to know as many helpful tactics as I can for what we are embarking on our journey to becomming healthier and thinner us, requires alot of knowledge of the do's and don't's at least for me it does.
daily as time gets closer things i eat I tell myself you will never be able to have this or that again. ( these are things I know I shouldn't be even eating now, like a fast food item or junk food or sugar. this is what got me to the size I am now. I've gotten weight off before but never kept it off more than one to 3 years, I know once I follow ALL the RULES and RESTRCTIONS of the new way of life, the pounds will come off and stay off.
I have to stop making excuses to not get on treadmill daily. I feel better when I exercise it's an ACCOMPLISHMENT TO ME, I love this room everybody has been so kind and helfpful with every ? I 've asked and I continue to ask more.
I wish you much luck with your journey and I love to talk so if you need someone to talk with, I'm all ears, and trying to learn to how to proceed on with eveything.
one day and one pound at a time WE WILL SUCCEED.
HOPE YOU HAVE A GOOD DAY,
DONNA
