What we are eating and what's eating us Thursday..
I am so in the last time zone!! 4:45 here.I have been reading a lot on here,I don't say much...
I am amazed sometimes at the amount of people who struggle daily with food,and not just on this forum.
I thought a long time before going for WLS why?? Because I wanted to be sure I could live without my drug. I am talking YEARS,lol,I would look at those 1oz cups and say "yeah right....."
I am grateful I do not struggle everyday with my food,heck,that would be like "getting fixed",then wanting to make a baby.I hope the road becomes smoother for us all,as the "new us" emerges.
B- Scrambled egg and Cheese L- Beef and veggie soup D-Baked Chicken and Green beans with Onion S- Cottage Cheese
I am happy to not be on a diet today..

Hiya Kathi,doesn't it suck, no operation on our heads?? Most of us have had a bad relationship with food all our lives. The fact that I can use the word "relationship" in the same sentence as food says it all. Now that our bodies have been "fixed", we have the hardest hurdle of all,our emotions.
I peeked in the men's column..grin..there was a question as to why women seem to have such a hard time after WLS,and the answers mostly agreed that it is our emotions...go figure!!
Hugs!

Hey there gurl!!! My best friend!! I love you!
OK...am calming down,so good to see you. You are right! We have not learned how not to live without our drug of choice! Of course we do not know how to live without it. You are such a determined strong woman,and I have seen your struggles.
We have to come to terms with food. I was lucky enough to do a 12 step program with food. It revealed so much to me. I lost weight with this program,but I gained pounds and per usual,many more.
Even with that,the awareness of what I was doing,"using" again,took away the joy and oblivion I could have with gorging myself was gone. I KNEW what I was doing.
There is an old saying, "free your mind,and your arse will follow".
I am so grateful for the mental awareness and all the start ups,and subsquent failures I have had,because they made me all ready to battle the food dragons that led me to the table.
I am so grateful, I just thought of how I used to truly "go to bed" with food. Whole pack of cookies,and chips,and soda,were my "lovers" for the night.
I am so happy for this thread,the people here,are the best I have ever known,when we fall, we can say so, without criticism. Someone,or I should say, a flock of doves from this forum will swoop us up,and help mend that hurt,and help us fly again.
Welcome, my beloved.

Today I am winging it. I will be in and out all day and have made no plans for cooking. Usually, though, when I am rushed like this, I rely on peanut butter in a spoon. It's something I can eat quickly and get nutrients from. Hubby and I will probably paint the town tonight because we are celebrating the last few days before I go back to work. Usually we eat at our favorite restaraunt and share a plate. Breakfast, I'm doing an egg. Lunch probably peanut butter in a spoon, and dinner seafood. Snacks: not today and if today, glidder food like peanut butter crackers.
Hiya Light!! I love your terminology today..LOL.
I just know you will be fine and have a great time. It is so nice to know we can "glide" and be in a good place.
The peanut butter, life saver for sure. Low fat peanut butter,and cottage cheese,these are a few of my favorite things!
