Im so hard on myself



Recommended Posts

So about a week ago I committed to keeping my net carbs under 22 and to get my 60 g of Protein finally.

I've made 2 Desserts for my family (all healthy-ish versions of stuff) and I've skipped it all. Until tonight. Tonight I made banana bran muffins with nuts. I picked the smallest one and ate it. It was a whim and I realized that I hadn't waited 15 minutes after drinking. I also ate the muffin fast. Uhoh. This means its probably coming back up. And a few bites did actually. I also went and did a ttapp "hoedown" (on YouTube) for carb busting. I feel bad about myself a little when I eat junk on a whim.

I mean here I am working out 4 days a week and trying so hard to stay low carb. I'm researching heartrate monitors and planning c25k when It warms up in central mo. What did I go and do that for?

We're all human and we have to live in this world and we'll all have weak moments. Whatever.

Now I commit to ONLY healthy desserts for the family.

I would also fail in that situation. My family will have to get used to eating fruit cups with sugar free whipped cream:) They can eat their junk but I ain't making it.

Amy - crap happens. You've been working hard at it, and it will pay off. Slipping up is going to happen, hell none of us tow the line 100% of the time. If you are chief cook in your house, it makes it that much tougher. I cook for a living, and it is really hard to not get a taste every now and again. Stay the course, get your HRM, do your 5k its all good.

I searched c25k just now and found my own thread that I'd abandoned and forgotten. You guys are so awesome about motivating and I just went and left ya hanging. I'm so sorry!! Thank you for wrapping your arms around me. I need it sometimes.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
