This morning as I was reading my twitter feed I noticed a posted from @ObesityHelp regarding a conference they hold every year. They have speakers and all that great stuff just like every other conference however this screamed at me! I heard "Hey Fatty, its time for you to get back on track. You need this." I am not the type of person to go anywhere alone so I thought I would ask some of my IG family if they would like to go, if they are in So Cal. Of course people travel to these things. But I think this is something I need to do so I can get out of my slump. By the way, I weigh 202 lbs today. Depressing. I am over 200 pounds again. My fault. I ate cookies again. Had some soda. Again. I am out of effing control.
Anyway, if any of my Weight Loss Surgery friends on here are going to attend the event in LA, please let me know.
Hey. I think this is a good idea. It seems like you're fed up with your weight and look to understand all the things to be done, in order to assure that you're able to get things under control. I'm also thinking it's a great idea to join forces with others who feel the same. I have to believed that kind of rapport can prove to be invaluable.
ReplyDeleteGood luck, Erica.
I think you are right. It is something I NEED to do. To be around others who have been more successful than I have been. What is it that they have that I lack? Motivation? Probably.
DeleteI don't think you lack motivation. I be the same way about things. But once I get started, I'm usually full speed ahead until completion.
DeleteIf my insurance covered it, I would get lapband surgery in a heartbeat. I am a type 2 Diabetic, and my dr has been on me for quite some time to lose weight. I need to lose about 70 lbs, and it only seems to come off maybe 1 -2 pounds a month. Very frustrating. I feel motivated, but I'm always tempted to eat what I'm not supposed to eat. I'm struggling to lose though.
ReplyDeleteDoes your insurance have a clause in there that prohibits any weight loss surgery? I am so thankful that I was able to get it. I am down a good amount of weight, however I would love to be 140 ish
