christieouchley 55 Posted July 5, 2013 Ive started getting tempted by some foods I prepare for my family. Since surgery you couldnt pay me to eat something off the plan. The past few days Ive been sneaking a chip here a bite of a chocolate covered granola bar there. I even ate a half of a burger at a BBQ today. Hope I can get back on track tomorrow. I really think I'm still insecure from all of the diets I have failed at in the past. For some reason I cant get it through my head this is not a diet. Don't get me wrong Im working out 6 days a week, going to the gym, keeping calories between 700-800 and getting all protien and Water in most days. Its just everynow and then I have a day where I could go CRAZY! I'm scared Ill fall off the wagon and stay off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PEvette 297 Posted July 5, 2013 you should look at it as more of a lifestyle change then a "plan" most of us have been dieting most of our life, and probably could stay on a diet or a "plan" with our eyes closed....I dont see anything wrong with a chip here or a Hershey kiss there, as long as you journal and hold yourself accountable..

Wow thats very reassuring from someone who has lost 98 lbs. Im guessing your a little ways out from your surgery and you trust your sleeve now. Im trying to learn to.

karenb4729 309 Posted July 5, 2013 I also have a fear of falling off the wagon and it's been a hindrance in my maintenance. My weight is were I want it to be but I keep losing because I can't seem to add in the calories... I'm so worried if I take a bite off plan that I will lose control and start pigging out. These changes take time and its probably best to take it one day at a time! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
