I was bad today :(



Recommended Posts

OMG! I totally did a complete NO NO today! I am normally so good about eating, but not today apparently. I was out and about running errands with my husband and youngest today and ate a late Breakfast. well it was well past lunch time and neither one of us had eaten, but my son ate before we left the house. So my husband thinks he wants Taco Bell! I said No i don't want anything, i will wait until we get home. Yeah right! I got a burrito and ate it all! oh i am full, not thanksgiving full, but full. i can't believe it ate that. i didn't have any problems with it going down either. Yikes! think i might need a fill thursday when i go in. I am kicking myself thinking wth was i thinking eating taco bell! LOL :)

In the perspective of things..it's not a big deal, especially considering you had been running errands all day (burning calories) and you hadn't eaten anything previously...

Just from my personal experiences, getting into the mindset of good food and bad food, and finding some foods to be "taboo" is extremely unhealthy. Sure maybe Taco Bell isn't the most nutritious food choice, but a calorie is a calorie, and as long as you didn't overeat today calorie wise..you won't gain a pound.

Taco Bell burritos are really a good choice if you're going to eat fast food. You didn't say which one you had but the worst one on the menu has 540 calories and 26 grams of fat. All of them are high in Protein and Fiber. Quit kicking yourself. Life happens and sometimes you have to eat things you wouldn't normally. It's OK. I went to Taco Bell for lunch today, too. I had pintos and cheese. 170 calories, 6 grams of fat and 9 grams of protein!

Yes. Taco Bell is my favorite fast food. I always get the pintos and cheese (170 calories like Cindy C said) and a fresco crunchy taco (150). So I get a super yummy meal for like 320 calories and lots of Protein and fiber. You should try it next time the hubby wants it :)

But like they said, don't beat yourself up over it. Everybody has off days. Just get back on it tomorrow. :)

You're doing awesome!

Like Cindy and MLR, I have been getting pintos and cheese when my husband is dying for one of their 5 layer burritos. I am glad to get the info on it. I thought it might be a fairly decent choice because of the Protein.

Don't beat yourself up......you are doing great.....I appreciate all of the posts you make.

All the best,

Melinda

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
