It's a brand new day!

[Barbie Girl 2]

Today is a new day. I LOVE my band, but I haven't been using it properly.

I have very good restriction. Problem: I've realized I can eat large portions of very unhealthy foods. In particular...pizza rolls! (I feel so disgusted when I admit this) For crying out loud, what's wrong with me! I'm an intelligent women who had WEIGHT LOSS surgery, only to sabotage my success.

I have been successful by losing 40lbs, I know that. However, I have a ton more to lose. I had my surgery nearly three years ago, and haven't lost one pound in the last two years! It's time for a change!

Hence the brand new day. Today, after running through my kickboxing routine and spending some time with my treadmill, I am having one scrambled egg for Breakfast, followed by a delicious Protein Shake. (haven't had one of those in a very long time) I am making my lunch in advance!!! A small tuna salad with dressing on the side...yum! One hour later I will continue to sip on ice cold Water, because today I'm taking a liter bottle of water with me, in a refillable container. Before dinner, I will refill my liter of water and place it in the freezer. It will be nice and cold by the time I'm ready for it. I bought some frozen parmesan crusted tilapia from Sam's club about a month ago...it's about time I warm that yummy goodness up. I'll eat one fillet with creamed cauliflower. I may be short on Protein. I'll have to take a closer look. In that case, I will just have to choke down either another small Protein shake or stick of string cheese, darn it!

I apologize if my details annoyed anyone. You may not care. By doing this I've made myself accountable to YOU. Today, I make a promise to you [and me] that I will treat myself like I'm worth a healthy body, from this day forward. I love me!

Here's to our success!

Love, Barbie Girl

Barbie,

No need to apologize. That's what we are all here for. Post all the details you want. I'll be watching. You are definitely worth a healthy body and it's very important to love yourself, If we can't love ourselves nobody else can either. Good luck sticking to your plan. I know you can do it! Throw away the pizza rolls. Those things are poison!

I am going to keep track of it too...because I too started a brand new day (after gaining back about 10lbs from quitting smoking and vacation and visits etc.) and you are empowing me to become more accountable to myself. I look forward to your posts and seeing your success ! I also have learned to eat around my band. Today that stops. Good Luck Honey!
