What are you doing/eating today (Tuesday)

I understand a fissure is extremely painful.....my sympathies to you

Your weight loss is great in one year.....so you are doing everything right!!.....I agree with Deidre re add some fibre one cereal ( for example) to your yogurt......add some green low glycemic veggies....the carbs are good on those......

Good luck with the healing

Hello Everyone.

Is there a bright side for you Barb in that you are getting some much needed sleep?

Katherine1: whole wheat english muffin and raspberries are healthy carbs!  Try to have some fresh fruit or veggies at every meal - rainbow on your plate.  For fibre I do that plus throw a handful of bran buds in my yogurt.

As i approach 6 months i find myself feeling hungry and having big eyes in terms of what I eat.  Yesterday was better because I logged and today is so far so good.  Now if only I can get myself riding my bike to work and running outside again - but its sooooo cold.

Does anyone ever experience times when you cannot eat as much as you normally do? I just stop eating as I was told, but it’s weird that the amount my pouch wants can very.

Late post today as my daughter is getting nervous driving in this weather so I took her into Kingston to college and I shopped.

Got some things that I think are great for my new eating...I had smart ones meals and put them back...once I read what was in them I think I am far better off cooking and constructing my own meals and freezing them.

I forgot my snacks and was at walmart - bought pure protein bars - now this may sound weird but they scare me...they taste way too good. I can see how someone could slip into wanting one of those a day, or even one an hour!

I have to be more disciplined before I leave the house. I am a Realtor and I can see how I could run into trouble once the weather turns around and I get even busier..I have to say I am proud of the fact that I figured this out on my own...the bars will go into the drawer at the office...and I will stick to premier protein bars as they taste 1/10th as tasty as the pure protein devils once they are gone - In about six months!
