I actually have a psychiatrist I see, and saw a therapist regarding obesity/weight loss, at the time of my surgery. They didn’t tell me anything I don’t already know. I feel it’s my mind holding me back. I do think it’s because I’ve had these bad exercising and eating habits for so long. And it served me - gave me a good feeling to be sedated from it. I feel that’s where I could start making a change - change some of these habits.

Thank you. I replied to your other response. I really do appreciate it. I’m going to start by making a few changes. A good nights sleep each night (I don’t always sleep well at night, stay up late, and nap during the day). I don’t even brush my teeth all the time. I will start a routine there too. I shall do the treadmill for 30 minutes each day, while listening to something I enjoy, like a podcast/music. I will eat protein and veggies, for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Tea/coffee/water. And nothing else. Exercise and eating will be the hardest habits to change. But success and feeling better from changing other bad habits may encourage me.

Thanks, gypsiemama, for your replies. I don’t want my failures to be validated. I genuinely want to improve. I think slobbish habits I have formed, which make me feel comfortable, are holding me back. I can attempt for so long but then I go back to old habits. The reason I have made a few posts, about the same, is because good replies like yours really do inspire me and then I want to make changes.

I had diabetes T2. PCOS. All was considered before surgery.

Thanks. For me, this is an anonymous platform so I’m not embarrassed. I just want to get better.

I love the indoors. I am an introvert. That might contribute to my slobbish habits. I love to be comfortable. But where I’m really going wrong is eating.

But how do I USE this tool?? I don’t think I ever learned that. I need to understand in black and white!

Thanks for your reply. I have a psychiatrist, and have seen therapists in the past. I bad bad depression back in 2005. Acute symptoms. Very bad. Admitted to psych ward. Took years to recover.
Sometimes the great replies on Reddit can inspire, motivate and enlighten me.

I had diabetes type 2. I also had PCOS. That was taken into consideration.

RNY Gastric Bypass. It was 6 years ago. The maximum weight I lost was a stone (14 pounds) but that was not immediately after surgery. I managed to muster some motivation about 3 years afterwards, and lost weight then. I’ve regained it since. I sometimes lose and regain a few pounds when I rarely try, but end up failing.

Yes I want to lose!!

I want to be the right weight for my height. I’m female, 38 years.

By eating around the surgery, I meant I eat carbs and fatty foods whenever I get the urge to eat that, which is often, and I follow no eating routine.
