I need a pep talk to get back on track

[missthaaaang 9]

I got my band about a month ago and I get my first fill tomorrow. I feel like I've gotten completely off track. My eating habits are still atrocious. I've lost 17 lbs total since I started the pre-op all liquids diet. But I'm eating nothing but crap! Carbs carbs carbs. Tonight I ate a slice of pizza for dinner. Last night I had Cheetos (yes, for dinner). :blushing: I've been skipping meals and what I do eat is is empty, refined carbs. I have no restriction.

I could really use a pep talk and some advice on getting back on track.

I am in the pre-op stage. I was always the worlds worst for getting off of track on whatever diet I was on, and always telling myself tomorrow/next week/after I get past this/ I am going to start eating better. Truth be told those days built one on another another and got me to where I am today or actually 1 month ago... but I started my pre-op diet 10 days ago and wow what a change already! We all have our own reason why we do what we do or have done what we used to do. Get back to the basics, I know it's hard because I went all day today with cravings, but I told myself to keep my head in the game...and not to sabotage the progress I have made. YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!!! Eat healthy.... don't give into the temptations, you are stronger than they are because you made the decision of start your journey..... and that is one the hardest and strongest decisions the we make for ourselves!!!! And remember don't regret yesterday, but look for tomorrow!!!!! Hang in there, and best of luck!!!!!
