Well, I threw my hands up in the air like I just don't care

 I give up.  I surrender to the gods of fat.  After a year and 17 days on the diet with Lehigh Valley Bariatrics I have called it quits.  I lost 25 pounds which calculates out to 0.0655 of a pound a day.  I guess you can really call it losing weight slow.  I feel like I am wasting everyone's time.  The doctor, the dietician and mine.  

I feel upset, sad and could cry easily when I think about it.  But, lets face it, I am never going to be able to get knee surgery.  I can't get my weight down far enough.  

Yes, we tried wellbutrin for my depression and weight loss and that was a mess.

Can't get any of the shots - unless I pay for them - and I can't rationalize putting money out to pay for this medicine when I have bills to pay

Next they wanted me to take an appetite supessant - side effects were as bad as wellbutrin 

So yeah I give up.

Not so much on myself but on losing a great amount of weight -  I will keep trying but chocolate is still my down fall.  

well actually food is.  

well, that's all - sorry I don't have better news -

Image
<a href="https://www.tomoson.com?code=TOPc5f3218b923f01ae4a0beca8055100f1" rel="nofollow" style="display: none;"></a> So, a couple of months ago I ended up in the hospital because they thought I might of had a mini-stroke.  I had a bad headache and while the doctor was checking me over they found some weakness on my right side - my hand and arm weren't as strong as they should of been. Well, all turned out ok, I didn't have a mini-stroke, of course, they found something else, which I am not to crazy about. So - the other week I see an offer for this hand strengthener.  I thought why not try it.  So I ordered it on Amazon. Here is where you can find it:  https://www.amazon.com/YSJ-Strengthener-Strengthen-Rehabilitation-Exercising/dp/B07F6PYKBJ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1535508583&sr=8-1&keywords=grip%20strength%20trainer The Gripper thingy is adjustable.   I t has an adjustable tension from 22lb to 88lb, from super eas...

OUT OF CONTROL

 Help, I have eaten and I cannot stop.  Well, sort of.  Stepped on the scale this morning and holy gain weight batman.  My Birthday Celebration of much food and cake finally caught up with me.  IT is now September 1 so I need to shake off the cake - however, I just ate a piece of candy (ouch).   So where did I go wrong - I turned 68, LOL - I celebrate the whole month and I did not cook 1 meal last weekend and basically ate leftovers all week - not healthy. Not healthy at all. So back on the protein bus - eat my veggies - be mindful, It is easy? No it is not.  I wish there was a way to eat cake and loose weight.  If I come across it I will let you know.   Yoga is helping my joints so much - also I have added some herbal supplements that are suppose to help arthritis - I will share those with you all on the weekend. I notice when I walk that I walk like an old lady - bent over and wabble - this needs to stop! In the meantime, have a r...

A Weight Loss Journey - Take #378

Image
 So over and over I try to loose weight - I told my dear daughter-in-law, Lauren that I have lost 1000 pounds, 5 pounds lost, 5 pounds gained over and over again.  So now, on the eve of my 65th birthday I wanted to know why. I was listening to a weight loss podcast this morning, that was Bible based and the Preacher said something I can't forget - find your WHY?  And he was saying, you might have tried weight loss for an event, for someone else, your family, your friends but until you find the real why, you will not succeed, and that you cannot succeed without God.  Because it is with God, the creator of our bodies, we will learn how to take care of them.  So I have embarked on a spiritual journey and maybe, just maybe I will find my why.   Now, I invite also, my daughter-in-law, Lauren, to join me here in this blog, I am going to give her access hopefully, to this blog, and she may write whatever she wants or feels on this journey.  If she wishes...
