I did really well last week doing mostly plant based foods. I upped my protein intake here and there as well. Although I'm not on the official pre-op diet, I think I'll need to start incorporating a bit more of it NOW! Today wasn't so great. I waited way too long to get something in my system. It was 2'o'clock when I finally ate. Not good. Everything was looking good. So I ate at a restaurant with my hubby and actually gave myself an excuse to order probably the last thing I should be eating. "It's probably the last time I'll have it, so....". Now when I'm thinking of all this, I've used that excuse too many times in he last month. I haven't gaIned any weight, nor lose any. My exercise is virtually nil with an injury and bursitis flaring up and I know that if I don't nip that sorry excuse in the bud now, I'll end up believing that lie (for myself).
Oh goodness, I lost track. So anyway, I did well with eating last week; hard work to figure it all out. The last couple of days I haven't and I feel the difference. It's back to work then. 😕

I know that feeling. I don't start my preop diet for another week and a half. I let my mind slip into that same "this will be the last time I get to eat this, so I might as well enjoy it" mode. It took me until yesterday to get out of that. Yesterday my son wanted to go eat fries at the "fries house". that's what he calls it... I call it Zaxby's. I almost caved and said yes because that'd be the "last time" I'd get to eat the fried fingers and fries... Luckily, I came to my senses and told him no. I felt so accomplished by saying no last night that it made it easier to walk right past the box of doughnuts at work this morning. Hopefully that feeling continues!
Best of luck!
