post holiday I finally got a chance to weigh in.
Exactly the same even to the 10ths of a pound. I guess that’s some level of victory as I didn’t gain.
I’m keeping it honest in 2026. I’m not willing to sugarcoat or soften what I’ve been struggling with.
It truly takes a village. No matter my mindset, or my willingness to eat healthy or cut back on calories or whatever related to my food, I am still restricted by what and when my family is willing to provide for me.
For someone whose very identity was shaped by the relationship with food this is a hard one for me. Having said that no matter what weight loss method I’m using including GLPs, surgery, prepackaged meals, or counting calories, I require some level of help with them.
When you are not sure when or what your next meal will be it’s hard to manage hunger and calories. That’s ok for someone who’s active but I spend most of my day not moving due to pain
I’m frustrated that I’m not any closer to relief with hip replacement. I have a promise from my family they will do better to help me. I’m holding onto the hope that it’s true.
