Improvement Needed in My Eating Plan

I'll be 5 years out in July and have maintained my 70 lb. weight loss for most of that time.  I did regain about 7 lbs. but took that off.  I really need to lose another 20-25 lbs.  Most every day I get at least 60 grams of protein; however, I have been eating way too many carbs.  My husband is very supportive of me, but I tend to cook for him then I eat whatever I fix for him.  He doesn't have a weight problem so he can eat whatever he wants.   

I have realized I need to eat like a bariatric patient, focusing on protein and lay off the bad carbs.  All this week I have been eating the bariatric way and feel much better.  I really don't need those 100 calorie packs. 

I retired 8 months ago and love my new life.  Time to get on track with my eating and make the most of my procedure.

I had surgery 2 months after you. Do you track your food? That helps me when I worry I am feeling out of control or need to lose. I also weight my food to make sure I know what a serving actually looks like. Sometimes I track at the beginning of the day and then do not "allow" myself to eat anything else.

You can do this!!
