    After losing over 100 lbs on the Atkins diet, I regained all that I lost. For me, dieting is not the answer. I have to change my lifestyle. For good.

  1. I had my birthday party last night. The good news: I can eat cake without feeling sick. The bad news: I can eat cake without feeling sick.

      Happy Birthday!!!

      Was it worth the calories? Was it the best you ever had? If the answer is no then don't do it again.

      Having a party is to be with people you care about not about the eating of the food, IMO....

      You've have come such a long way and remember that the next time so you don't go there again to eat sweets.

      You worked so hard at your achievement that it's just not worth eating sweets.

      The end of the lecture for today.

      Keep going strong.

      I am not really very worried about being able to eat cake. In my fat life, treats were not my main problem. I was a volume eater of basically healthy food. Hopefully the sleeve will help me with that.

       

      But to reply to the comment about enjoying the people at parties, not the food. That doesn't sound right to me. Eating is pleasurable. Eating together is pleasurable. I want to enjoy both the food and the company. I just have to stay conscious. Mindless eating is a danger, yes, but I believe a world without birthday cake on your birthday is a pretty bleak place.
