I am guilty of snacking. I need an accountability
partner, someone who I can tell what I ate and help me. Not get mad when
I mess up but I think just having to tell someone will make me be good,
lol. Maybe I can just tell all of you!! Oh man, you may not want to
hear it but if I mess up and know I have to tell you, then maybe I won’t
do that again. I feel like I’ve derailed! My middle daughter
Tessa is coming to live with us, she just turned 14, so maybe I can make some
support meetings, she can watch the little ones for me. I feel like
kicking myself in the bottom!!!
Okay, so today I had an omelet for
breakfast, it was only one egg, but had ham, black olives and cheddar
cheese. I ate it slowly. I didn’t have any snacks this
morning. Then at lunch, I feed the kids pasta with alfredo but I didn’t have
any pasta, doesn’t set well with me. But I did have what was equal
to half a piece of bread toasted and dipped into the sauce. A couple bits
of broccoli and some ground beef. It was half of one of those meatloaf
things from swans. But I am drinking diet pepsi. So I don’t
feel bad.
I did go to the doctor today because of my
shoulder and he noticed I had gained some weight. He didn’t make me
feel bad but told me to be careful that I know what to do. (yea, right) I
did call and get my 2 year check up at the weight loss center (or whatever they
are calling it now). Maybe I can get back down before I go to it, it’s
not for a couple of weeks.
Okay, so let me make my check list
1- walking when school starts
2- no more snacking
3- get back on vitamins (I slip on those
every once in awhile.)
4- humm…. What else??

One thing
my nutritionist said was NO SNACKING! So far I have adhered to that. She said
if I didn't break that habit, I'd be back where I started and my surgery would
be a failure. Last night we had a business meeting at China Bistro. Their
portions are HUGE. I overate and still brought enough home for 2-3 more meals!
When I got home I wanted to snack even though I was still full. I never buy
snacks anymore so fortunately I had nothing to snack on AND my calories were
all used up anyway. So I finished my jug of Blueberry Tea and I was satisfied.
I bought this 64 oz. Jug with a sports lid from Wal-Mart. I make my drinks in
that every day cause I know I have to drink at least that much. In our support
group meeting we learned if we felt hungry, usually we were really thirsty
instead. I found that works for me.

I feel like now that I am over a year out, almost 2 and I can eat almost
anything, it is hard to think I need to go back on shakes. Some days I wish
I could have this done again to get me back to the beginning again. Yes, I
would go through the pain again to keep from gaining weight back. But as
far as a day to day to day thing, I have a hard time with control. Esp in
the evening and sometimes in the morning I think if I start eating, I can't
stop. And I try to tell myself that eating or certain foods are not worth
it but then I have to eat it anyway. It's the same cycle as before I lost
the weight. I really want to stop this before it gets out of hand.
I do think the journaling helps, I saw on GMA yesterday a man who lost over
100 pounds just by journaling for over a year. That's called disciple, of
which, I seem to have none!
