Yep, fat days ... We all have em. So conditioned to beat ourselves up. And i think it is especially acute for us girls. My specialist bans the "F word" and only uses it as the name of the substance that sits under our skin and covers our body, or as a substance we consume. We are overweight, medically obese, etc. Even at 10stone, with normal BMI and size 10/12 I will have a fat feeling now and then. I get on the scales and there is no change.
Keep strong xxxxx

You look amazing ceecie! I had a fat day today too, wearing a size 8 dress. My counselling trainer used this metaphor:
Our brains are like Velcro for negative and Teflon for positive!

That's a great one Nic. Agree. I had a rubbish day - did Insanity first thing. Rushed home, jumped in the shower, slapped a face on,straight in car to my specialist's monthly support group which takes over an hour there and back. All I had was three spoons of porridge and three cups of coffee. By the time I got home it was gone 4pm ... Somewhere/somehow
I've managed to consume a packet of Ritz crackers in front of the TV. And had a fish curry for supper. All without consquence or a struggle to swallow down. Some days the bypass is more relenting - which ain't really great but ya know ... i am still consuming far less than I was before the bypass, even on a bad day. Quite happy about that. Tomorrow maybe one of those days when food is not so much of a player ... Who knows x

It's very easy to become consumed with the goal of becoming SLIM....a size 8,10,12,... Oh yes there are days when I feel that is my right now I have spent 12K on losing this weight!
BUT
In reality, this journey was about LIFE NOT SIZE.
LIFE NOT SIZE
I wanted to live. Explore new things. Be a more rounded person by experiencing as much as I could. Learning.....
I have flappy skin. It slaps together when I move too fast. My partner looks at me and makes a sarcastic comment like "that's not a good look!".. ....
Yes I could get upset by that.....but I don't. I choose to laugh. I'm alive. I'm getting married. I can fit in a dress! I won't get breathless or sweaty on our honeymoon....
The list is endless. I'm still not perfect physically. Geeze my legs look repulsive, far worse than they did pre-op....... But I don't care.
I'm loving life.
Thankyou for all of your lovely comments. They always provide much encouragement and support, it's amazing.
If I can do it, anyone can!!!!!
