Just wanted to thank those of you who've given me some nice comments. It's really appreciated.

It's amazing that just last week I was kind of in a funk and thinking that somehow this (the lap band) wouldn't work for me, and now I am totally re-inspired. If I didn't have the band I would have started the eating funk that got me up to 295lbs. But the band makes it to where I just can't eat what I used to. I get full very quickly. And since I really don't want to PB (productive burp) I stop eating when I feel full. I did have some chocolate cake last week. I started to beat myself up over it but that line of thinking has just got to change. We can't eat perfect all of the time. As long as I'm not eating cake or other high calorie/high fat foods everyday. Luckily I'm not a big sweet person. Once every couple of months usually does me good.

I thought that I'd post what I ate today to give an idea of how my diet has changed since started the soft food stage.

8am 1/4 c. oatmeal

2 oz nonfat milk

2 Tbs sugar free maple syrup

10am 3oz of light tuna w/ 1 Tbs mayo

1pm 1 scoop whey protein powder

4 oz nonfat milk

5pm 3oz hamburger pattie (pureed)

2 Tbs brown gravy

2 mushrooms (all of this blended together)

2 Tbs. mashed potatoes

I at half of this at 5 and the other half around 7pm

9pm sugar free fudge bar

 

So my total caloric intake was 850 calories and 83 grams of protein. It's so amazing that I am full on this amount of food. Oh- and I did ride my bike today for 30 minutes.

Goodnight everyone! Take care.
