Weight loss is weird. I started my journey almost two years ago at about 315 lbs….Could have been higher…But…I hated the scale tremendously. I now weigh 160 lbs…..And with clothes on I feel so sexy and powerful and confident. BUT. THIS IS THE REALITY OF WEIGHT LOSS SURGERY. It’s hard. It’s hard physically. It’s hard mentally. It’s hard socially…It’s just…..hard. Your life changes so drastically so quickly it’s difficult to keep up sometimes…. Quite exhausting really….. BUTTTTTTTT. I will tell you this. It gets easier. There is hope beyond the initial post surgery depression. There is happiness in your progress after your 5 week weight loss stall. There is peace once you break up with your scale and realize a number does not define your success. There is confidence in the new you who will propel you to new heights. There is life……There is life after this surgery. Despite my many challenges, a surgery related near death experience…..Hair loss, extra skin…..An ended engagement and a variety of relationships post surgery…..My life now is better than it has ever been. I guess what I’m trying to say is…..For anyone just starting out or who is stuck or just sad/regretful, as I was on many occasions……This will pass, and you will achieve the success you are striving for. I have so much faith in you. Stay smiling xox -- source link
