Glad you had a good day, Melissa! I had a nice evening with friends and family yesterday. It was relaxing and I felt very special. Diana
Topic: RE: I need a Buddy
I had surgery the day before you and I need to be motivated too! I can eat more now and I realize that I am just eating too many carbs and think I can get away with it because it is a small quantity but these foods are calorie-dense. Consequently, my weight loss has slowed. It is true that we need to be vigilant and still be careful what we eat if we want to be successful. I went to my support group on Saturday and we talked about the success habits of weight loss surgery patients. There is a book and website dedicated to these ideas. Anyway, they say that you should eat 70% protein and 30% fruits and vegetables and whole grains. I have been eating more carbs than I should. I am trying to do better. It is easy to slip into old habits! I would be happy to email you or anybody that needs support like I do. Maybe we could post our daily menus and commit to them each day so we wouldn't be tempted. What do you all think?

At this point, I eat about 4 times a day. I usually get in about 60 grams of protein a day. I eat no more than 1/2 cup of food at a time. I never eat sugar. I am so careful with that. I have eaten a few things that had more fat than I have been told to eat, but very rarely.
Food really does not taste good to me. I like imitation crab and that is about it. Eating is such a hard thing for me. I would rather not eat at this point. I do try things and sometimes wonder if it is ok for me to eat, but I follow what my nut said to me as close as I can. I just want this to work for me. I am scared that I may fail and that keeps me eating what I think I should eat.
I can not really give you a typical day because sometimes I eat the same thing all day. Sometimes I don't. I never feel I need more that 1/2 a cup at a time so I never try more than that.
