I spoke with my nurse yesterday and my surgical date has changed from July 12th to July16th. I am getting anxious on because I worry about my own personal will power. I eat whether I am hungry or not. I can tell myself over and over not to do it, but I love flavor. Notice I did say food. It's not that I need to fill up, I just cant get enough of the flavor of something good.
Today is another new day. I know I have the choice to so what's right, I now need the will power.
So, I've been out of the picture for a while. I got a job, quit my job. And now I'm back to working on me. As of today I have lost 31 lbs. in 5 months. I thought this would be a bigger number by now, but I'm actually pretty happy with it. I'm not gonna lie and say I've done everything by the book, we did just go through 2 major eating holidays. And make the best Hershey chocolate pies. However I am proud of myself. I used to make 2 pies. One for the family and one I'd devour before anyone knew it was there. Lol.
My eating habits are not very structured anymore. I eat when I feel hungry. The cold wet weather tightens my band and some days I just make sure I get my protein shakes in and my liquid vitamins.
Now that I'm not working anymore I can go back to my menu plans. I'll post them again in a separate blog and please feel free to comment and give feedback.
Good to be back!!!
