Gastric Bypass Journey

 l finally had a gastric bypass after a huge weight gain accompanied by deteriorating health and a host of several undiagnosed conditions. I am still on that journey as unfortunately I am not one of those people who lose weight fast, l lost it slow and steady. I will walk you through my journey from day 1 up to today October 2022.

May 2015

I have ballooned. My biggest problem is.....all my attempts at weightloss were mainly through exercise. Now my lower back pain & other pains stop me from exercising & leading an active lifestyle. I need to control my eating habits & lifestyle then for life I am set.

I am finding it difficult to lose weight or rather continue on this journey. Its 4 weeks today after having my gall bladder removed. I feel a lot better in myself most of the pain is gone. I took the last tramadol today and hopefully will not need anymore.
I do have the occasional back pain which I am hoping ibruprofen and paracetamol can relieve.

I need to get to the new weightloss goal of 72kgs then will see if I want to proceed to 68kgs. I need to be a size 8 top and 10/12 bottom to maintain an hourglass figure which I have been blessed with.

My goals are to be FIT and full of energy. I want to lead an active life for me and my children.

Please God steer me in the right way, I do believe if one wants something and really wants it, they will get it ALWAYS.

ONWARDS & DOWNWARDS!!!

I did it !!

So I have been feeling low because I tried on some trousers I thought should fit now that I have lost 3.5kgs. So I tried them on and they did not fit. I then realised its 2.5kgs I have lost not 3.5kgs. I was so dismayed I sat down and was thinking what shall I eat. But a thought creeped into my mind ' I am feeling low because I am fat so I if I eat I am only just adding to the problem. I went for a little walk, but it did help a little bit then I phoned a friend. I feel ok now and had 2 cups of tea as I felt a bit dehydrated. Am back to my normal self now and am glad I did not succumb to SELF SABOTAGE. Good day my friends
