boomrkt 0 Posted November 4, 2008 Hey everyone!!! I am Alea! I don't know about all of you but I am so tired of hearing the phrase...but you have such a pretty face...thanks but no thanks! I am so over being overweight. I am 2 months into my dr supervised weight loss and hopefully will be getting scheduled for a Jan surgery. I am a single mom and my daughter is only 15 months old...I don't want her to remember her mommy as being fat and I want to be able to teach her good eating habits. Any suggestions on how and what to do? Hopefully the lap band will make me not eat so much but will it do anything for my food choices? I am have been trying to cut out fast food completely but for some reasons sodas are my weakness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

noosagirl 0 Posted November 4, 2008 I think your half way there cause your aware your eating habits aren't great and your trying to do something about it. One helpful hint is think Fresh food, vegies, fruit, lean meat, chicken, seafood, eat every 3-4 hours, plan what your going to eat for the week, keep a food diary. See a dietition, once you've keep a food diary for a month take it to a dietition and then they will be able to help. I don't think you have to cut out take away and junk food, just have it occasionally. This will be easier once your banded, especially since your taking steps now to eat healthier.
