Who knew eating healthy tasted so good!

[knhtown 121]

Pre-op I thought I must really enjoy food to eat so much lol.... Actually until I was banded and started eating healthy did I truly know what food tastes like. Im not trying to say that cheesy tex-mex or fried food tasted bad. Im saying eating healthy food and really TASTING it. Maybe its that Im actually paying attention to what is actually going on instead of mindlessly eating from boredom,comfort or whatevers. I have become the quite the cook! I look up recipes usually go to pinterest healthy section and see stuff I like by the pics then ingredients and try it. Made some quinoa lime salad, seasoned baked chickpeas, avocado-chicken salad, Califlower crust pizza. Alot of the stuff I cook I didnt even know what it is. Who Knew stuff that is good for you actually taste good and I look forward too. I havent had a fill and honestly I could eat as much as I want but I chose not too and what I do choose I ask myself does this fit in with my Under 1000 calorie goal?

Sounds like a very good attitude to have. Keep up the good work.

If you're a fan of Pinterest look me up (fight4light) i have a lapband board have compiled quite the list of band friend stuff.

It's weird. I've learned a lot about myself now that I have the band. I love eating healthy. I LOVE substitute foods. Making things look bad and unhealthy but really be good for you. I've also gone semi vegetarian and tolerate more vegetables than I ever did before.

On top of all that, I can tell myself "no" now. I can tell when I'm hungry or just bored at home. It's an amazing feeling and just good to know ill have my happy ending.
