Anyone Struggle Today?

I struggled today at the,family cook out. Totally derailed. I did real good most of the day. Had a shake for Breakfast, and apple. Walked 3 miles with the hubster and dogs.Had a shake for lunch, nuts and apple for a snack. I wasn't really hungry allday. But boom... at the cook out all the bad eating happened. I was not hungry but I ate way too much and poorly. There were healthy options but I didn't choose wisely. I know I can't change things and I'll be back on it tomorrow. I have my 3rd pre op weigh in tomorrow so I'm stressing a bit. Over all I've been eating okay. A few of off the wagon eating but no where like before this process. I'm probably making too much out of it. But augh . I have a very busy 3 weeks with graduation, parties, a ball, and several picnics.

I read your post and thought this lady is a smart cookie. I think you should Celebrate that you know you made bad food choices today and know tomorrow the food choices will be better.

As an obese person when I think back on my eating I think how I would make bad food choices one day after the another until it was so out of control it was difficult pulling it back together...

Thanks. I'm just happy I recognize it so much better. Picnic season is harder for me than the winter holiday season.

I'm trying to come up with a better plan for the next picnic in 14 days. I might just bring my own food and sit away from the food or play with the kids.

I go to the ball in 7 days. It's amazing rum bar, scotch bar and tons of finger foods. I know how to avoid the bad stuff there. Although scotch and rum are my favorite drinks. Theyusually have,a great fruit and veggie spread.

That's tough.. I'd avoid the food table area. Drink Water or eat a popsicle. Not sure what your allowable food is but eat a hard boiled egg to kinda mock the texture of the potatoe?hang in there!
