Having been able to buy size 4 clothes made it a lot easier to pass them by without even a second thought. Even bought my niece pretzel wetzels and was okay with the smell in my car. Lol!!

Good for you. I haven't been to the mall once since surgery (I am 11 weeks out) because of pretzel bites and macadamia nut Cookies...I don't think I have the control yet.

Good job! Congrats on a size 4 - that's tiny! I want to be a 14!

I can't wait to get to that place, mentally. For some reason my family decided to

Cook/eat my favorite foods this week while I'm on clear liquids!!! Gahhhh!!!! I've never been a murderer before, but I swear if someone cooks garlic, or bacon one more time, I'm gonna snap!! haha... bring on the size 4's!!

How long has it been since your surgery???

Lol! I am down 125 pounds in 7 months

I wish I felt this way. I was at the mall last night and almost wanted to throw a tantrum in front of Cinnabon. Okay, not quite. But I was close. I'm happy with where I'm at, but some food is soooo appealing. Sometimes I have to work really hard at this. Btw- I didn't get a Cinnabon.

Do you still have the occasional treat?? (maybe Cinnabon isn't worth the cals) but do you not have anything that satisfies the 2 year old tantrum in you?

Oh- also.... Way to be strong!!! haha

Sadly having an occasional treat turned into a nightly thing. I kept my cals low and didn't gain but I was making poor food choices. I think it has a lot to do with the fact that i run consistently. So, it's back to the drawing board. I found that right now I needed to "detox" from sugar and processed foods. I have a sweet and salty tooth like no other! It's scary. Right now I'm satisfying my sweet tooth with oranges and smoothies. I will keep fighting the fight! Lol!

I'm jealous! I'm 3 1/2 months out and have had more stalls then I care to mention. I don't really have a weakness for any junk food but I am not sure if I'm eating the right amounts. I'm not complaining though. I'm down from a size 22 to a 14 already!!!

I was at the mall today and oh my Annie Anne's pretzels looked so good....but I knew if I even got one I could only take two bites and be full, so I passed by all the yummy food too!

I still have occasional treats like 4-5 almond m&ms instead of half the bag or some sherbet instead of a pint of icecream. It satisfies my sweet tooth. Congrats on your self control

[Almostthere34 128]

Congrats! I have bouts of self control and then my poor habits start to rear their ugly head. I am trying to detox myself. I am down btwn a 4/6. I probably would have a Cinnabon bite or something.
