So I went to the surgeon
And Boy.... he was not a happy camper with me. Calories need to be decreased, I need a water pill for all the swelling I have ( am retaining lots of fluid).... and carbs need to be cut down. He wants me to lose 12-15 lbs over the next 3 months when I see him again. I've barely lost that since having the surgery. This is…

05/28/2015- Today I.....
Good morning ladies and gents... Not sure if I want to celebrate a NSV, share what I am looking forward to, or what this morning. Yesterday was a rough day at work. My job was threatened, and I'm not sure how I am supposed to take what was said to me. I went over Reggie's last night and we went to TGIF's for our 1 month…

New to LCHF and have a ?.....
Good day!! I know that my situation is kind of unique. I had gastric bypass on 01.26.15 and have lost a minimal amount of weight. I talked to my surgeon yesterday who also stated I should be doing more low carb, my protein is just right and more fat. Has anyone else here done LCHFMP after having RNY? What was the outcome??…

Good morning Ladies and Gents!!! I thought I'd do something different this morning. Instead of celebrating the NSV's that we have, I think we should say what NSV's we are looking forward to. Be it a size down in clothes, fitting into the special jeans you've been saving all this time... Throw out the ideas you are looking…

Good morning ladies and gents!!!! It's been a wierd couple of days for me. I got down to 297... then bounced back to 299.5. I'm still below the 300 mark, but not by much.

I'm back- been a bit quiet
Good morning Ladies and Gents!!!! Yesterday was such a hard day mentally. I got to see my Psychiatrist last night. I love this man as since I've been his patient he doesn't catch the attitude most Doctors/medical proessionals do, that they know everything. He's very down to earth, very understanding and works with me and…

05/14/2015- A little different day
Good morning ladies and gents!!! Seems like we are all doing extremely well with recognizing the NSV and celebrations each day. Today I want to switch things up. Today I want to reinforce why we are all on this journey. What makes us get up and push forward each day with new resolve. For me, I'm exhausted all the time.…

Good morning everyone!! Today is a new day and I am starting with a new resolve to make it through with no carb products. I found that my diet although high in protein is also very high in carbs. I am going to try to keep the carbs to fruits and veggies. Today I celebrate that the size 26 capris that are NOT stretchy fit…

OK... tears flowing
I've been seeing my new man for a very short time.... We are SO alike, it's amazing. He has a past. Not a great one either, but he's made amends and is changing and has left the people and past behind him. (or I wouldn't be with him).....So today I emailed him as I am a bit skitish from being hurt in the past from my…

Good morning everyone!!! Today I celebrate waking up, in a good mood. I was reading articles on Bipolar yesterday, mine is severe, but with meds, very much under control.

Good morning everyone!!!! Although yesterday was not even close to a good eating day, I put on my big girl panties, sucked it up and started anew today. Normally a bad eating day would lead to many, so for me, this is a major NSV. Also, don't know what is bothering my tummy this morning, but something is making me feel…

20/30's
I'm not in my 20/30's anymore. I went to a weekend long party in Edison, NJ this past weekend.... Boy am I exhausted. Can barely keep my eyes open here at work. UGH. I wish I could do caffeine pills again. Junk food is not an option. It would wake me up for an hour, then I'd crash hard and fast.
