Eatin' Good in the 20's Neighborhood - Wacked-Out Wednesday

I stayed up until 4am doing math  homeowork last night, and then today the prof decided NOT to collect it.  Oi.  Then I am pretty sure I failed the exam.  Not the final mind you, that is next  Wednesday.  My professor just decided that we needed ANOTHER exam this week to worry about in addition to the final.  Ugh. 7:30 - 3 oz espresso, 6 oz steamed skim milk, 1 oz sf vanilla davinci syrup 20 oz water 9:30 - 1 med golden delicious apple 20 oz water 1:00 - 4 oz chicken stir fry, 3 oz fruit salad 20 oz water 4:00 - 3 oz parmesan, herb and garlic baked pita chips 20 oz water 8pm - 4 oz pork chop, 3 oz mix of augratin potatoes, french style green beans and cooked carrot slices - it is my mother-in-law's famous "pork chop casserole" that I finally made successfully

Hey, so I've been getting into my emotional eating habits....of course it's nothing compared to before surgery, but still very upsetting....I'm not even going to write what I've eaten today, but wanted to fess up and be held accountable!!!  BUT...the good news is that I'm working on making a change for the better....here's to tomorrow!

Emotional eating is so complex.  Where I am only a few days post op I haven't had to deal with it just yet post op.   Aknowledging it and wanting to do something about it is the first step so good for you!  You can overcome it one day at a time!!!  Best of luck.

You've got the right attitude - tomorrow (or today) can be better.  You can do it.

Late night snacking nabbed me again - it was my biggest emotional eating time pre-op and it still seems to be.  *Sigh   My calories have been up lately too.  So today, I'm working to do better, and I am!!  It helps to measure instead of eyeball, that's for sure.
