Grumpy

I'm having a grumpy, out of sorts day.  Started last night when I ate a bit too much.  Well, it wasn't THAT much so I couldn't get panic'd about a few hundred calories-400 or so isn't going to kill me and it was a rare (not crazy enough to think it was a one time) thing. Today have just been "off".  Eating back on track, not so with the mood.  I'm hoping that keeping to a good eating plan will improve the mood.

Bless your heart!  I hope it all gets better for you.  And remember, we all fall off the wagon from time to time - it happens - you admitted it and you will do better.  Don't sweat the small stuff! Have you gotten your first fill? Tonja

I don't get my first fill till Sept. 11.  I think I may be in the bandster hell portion of the process-new has worn off, and there is a long road to go. Also, let's not forget that a month before banding I left my job and moved back to OKC from Dallas-talk about sweeping life changes.  For me, it actually works better to take on a big load at once, even if it results in being grumpy occaisonally.  Today (Monday) I am going to go to an old coping mechanism-the short list.  These are things I will get done today and the rest of the world can wait. The list will help me focus on things beside my band and just on the task at hand.  Oh wow, I rhymed. As for eating-I'm just laying down the solid protien rule FIRST, hard and fast and letting the rest take care of itself.  I think I found out I could eat a greater variety of things than I first thought, and protien is my least favorite thing, so it's easy to set aside.
