YOU MUST BE MILITANT to be above average
Our old eating habits are like the check out stand where they place all that crap stuff they want us and our kids to purchase those things without thinking about what we are doing. We have to stay aware of what we are eating and why and how it will affect us.
I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday, whatever one you celebrate.
Merry Christmas and here's to conscious choices.

It's good you're sharing your thoughts with your husband so he better understands what you're going through and what you need to be successful. Why does he look forward to you eating mashed potatoes though?

When I decided to have most of my stomach removed due to obesity, I also decided that I was done being fat and that my life would no longer revolve around food. I was determined to get to a BMI in the middle of the normal range or below and I have. I measured and documented, and continue to measure and document, my intake. I will admit that I am not the poster child for exercise, but I certainly walk more than I did a year ago and I love to swim, flabby thighs and all. Frisco and Elina helped me through their posts and I have always thought they were so generous to share their expertise. I would like to thank them, and you too, for saying things that need to be said.
