Thank you for reminding us that we don't need to make choices that make others proud. I'm betting those of us on weight loss journeys practice a lot more self control and a lot more discipline than most people around us.
I’m just about 2 years out and struggle eating enough or eat junk. Haven’t had a soda at all which I don’t want to add any junk. I can easily slip back into old patterns that go me messed up in the first place. Thanks for sharing ❤️👍
❤ Do you ever wonder if the stress we feel is a result of all the events and issues from the surgery? I don't have the 'stress capacity' I had 2 yrs ago! I am convinced that worry about protein consumption, vitamins and cooking food that I can't eat have destroyed my stress capacity 😂! Meanwhile down on the farm..... The chickens are starting to lay eggs, the summer garden is winding down and winter squash is prolific! Darlene
I personally think a lot of it with me has to do with food being taken away as my main coping strategy. I still stress eat, but I definitely don't get the same "relief" anymore and I think it puts me personally in a vulnerable position of feeling stress and not being sure how to handle it. In the past, I certainly didn't handle my stress better but I was able to mask it better and would eat until the point of my focus being on my pain and discomfort rather than the initial cause of my stress. I bet there are a lot of factors, but I wouldn't be surprised if this is one reason I feel like my stress is increased these days.
I'm so lucky he's such a trooper! Now if he can just respond better to the insulin, we'd be golden lol. But we're making progress so that makes me happy 🥰
Thank you so much!!❤ I was never following Keto or low carb plans to any extent. I try to be reasonable about carb intake but I focus on balance of different kinds of foods and nutrients above all else. As I say in this video, carbs are public enemy #1 right now and I truly don't believe they are the problem - no one specific food or food group is inherently the problem, at least for me and my specific situation and needs!

You look great, so happy for you. I'm currently 10 months out.

I’m so sorry Philip has diabetes. It’s amazing he’s so cooperative!
