MichiganChic 3,262 Posted January 29, 2013 I confess.... That I have an underlying fear/worry that I have or will get a leak. I have an incisional infection that they thought was healed and opened up again at 5 weeks, and I worry that it will be a long time before it's healed properly. That I worry I might not lose enough weight, and I'll the one surgery doesn't help. That I love to get on the scale every day! I don't let it get me down if I stay the same or gain a little, but I'm super happy when it shows a loss! The thought of cake used to get me out of bed, now the idea of getting on the scale gets me out of bed! That I worry that if I do lose all the weight I want to, I won't be able to maintain it longterm. That I work hard at getting my Protein, Vitamins, and Water in, and succeed the great majority of the time. Every day it makes me feel like I accomplished something! That I worry too much!!

joatsaint 2,814 Posted January 29, 2013 I confess .. I wish I could eat a double Whataburger, large fries and a drink one last time. I get an evil thrill when I see my thin friends eating plate after plate at the buffet. And I only eat 1/3 of a plate. I am finally "getting back" at the foods that made my life miserable, by leaving them on the shelf at the grocery store. I really enjoy being able to bring my lunch in a Cool Whip bowl and making 3 - 4 meals out of it. I run to the scales to see how much I weigh after taking a poop.

suejersey 263 Posted January 30, 2013 I confess that I am disappointed I haven't gone down in clothing size more. I confess that I am disappointed that more people haven't said anything to me about losing weight. I confess that I really want to join the gym for zumba and weight training mostly, but am afraid I won't use it enough and it will be a waste of our hard earned money. (We really can't afford $70 a month but I really want to do it - I feel selfish) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NtvTxn 1,262 Posted January 30, 2013 You should avoid Margarita's, they are loaded, LOADED with sugar. Kind of like Pina Coladas. Sad, sad!!! Take a few sips of someone else's. There are other things that are not quite as bad, not loaded with sugar. the good news is......you WILL be able to have Mexican food again. Even when I was in my losing phase, we'd go get TexMex. I'd get a grilled chicken enchilada and eat the chicken out of it. Or easier yet is fajitas....chicken or beef. Some places here in TX they'll put a small scoop of butter....ask, and ask them to leave it off. I'd have a couple of bites of a steamed tortilla dipped in the salsa. You don't have to have a chip to dip, the salsa is the good stuff.....corn tortillas are much 'safer'. A bite or two...small bites, of Beans and/or rice. You'll get the stuff you love and get some Protein too. Now that I'm in maintence and my tummy is healed and has relaxed, I can eat a whole cheese enchilada if i want, with about 2 T of Beans and 2 T of rice. I may or may not eat three or four chips. If I do, I always either choose a sm broken one or will break up a full sized and get several bites out of one chip. You can't eat many or else you cannot eat the meal. When we get fajitas, i just eat the meat and guacamole...a few bites of the beans and rice. I do not feel deprived at all, ever. There are things that I USE to get that I CHOOSE not to eat. 1) I can't wait to have some table side guacamole 2) it's hard to take my Vitamins as needed 3) all I think about is a margarita 4) notice I'm more calmer now then I was when I was smoking pot 5) some days I wish I was strong enough to loose weight without surgery all becuz i miss mexican food and Rita's Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
janerose 109 Posted January 30, 2013 I confess I have not been as concientious about what and how much I eat since December..... I confess I have become a little cocky about my new look - I confess I am frighten to gain back the weight - today I got on the scale and gained two pounds and freaked out (in my head only). I confess my sister - who am with often has gained some weight and most likely very tired of hearing all the great remarks about my dramatic change in look. I confess I thought I had this all under control but now I think not - and I am scared. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Velena 122 Posted January 31, 2013 Mexican food has been a life-saver for my social life. When the family wants to eat out, I suggest Mexican so I can get grilled meat (fajita or shrimp) and Beans. I don't eat the rice but I never used to eat it before on my diabetic diet. I have had a couple of chips but if I eat too many then I know I won't eat anything else. I usually bring 2/3 of the meal home and have it for lunch for the next two days. Favorite so far: cheese and shrimp quesadilla on the kids menu - it was delicious and I could eat almost 1/2 of it!
