sick

ok ok so i was in a hurry today and tried to scarf down lunch and it wasnt 15 minutes later and I know it was my fault... I sometimes try to rush too much and dont chew up my food as good as I need to... Sometimes I just need a wake up call to SLOW DOWN

Paula, Sometimes I hate to eat so much that I eat too fast just to get it over with. Its really funny because pre op I was always the slowest eater at the table. My kids used to get so honke off at me because I was holding everyone else up. I think now that we are using food as fuel it takes on a whole new meaning. It sounds like I just need to slow it down a bit too. Food should still be savored just not so darn much importance put on it. Love you Miss Paula Laura

Laura, you are learning quickly. I find myself cooking for quality not quantity. I love to cook so now I still cook, I just cook beautiful meals that are good for me. THe family does not know the difference. Well that or they just don't want to cook LOL. And yes Miss Paula, I too have done that. Just the other day I had a few triskits. Then I drank some water and they swelled. Can we say ooowwwwwwccccchhhh. We learn quick! Richard

Oh how true Rick... I have been cooking for quality too.. I was just in a hurry today and tried to eat WAY TO FAST!! I think sometimes we just need a wake up call to remind us that we do have to change our ways of eating and life... My little pouch was reminding me that it was there... Take care!!

My tummy has felt on the strange side all day too... I managed to go to the pool and do my aerobics for a few hours, but just felt a little ouchy in the tummy. And usually I come home feeling energized, but tonight my butt is dragging.. So I think I am going to kick back, relax and sip some nice cold ice water and read the paper Goodnight to all, Laura
