I did my walk,
, but I was only able to go around the track 6x's due to the heat here in Manhattan today. But I was glad I went. Thanks for the encouraging words.

Daily Inspiration for August 5, 2010
Katie Jay, MSW
Shield yourself from your triggers.
Are there trigger foods that get you every single time? All you have to do is smell them, or see them, and the next thing you know you're licking your fingers and savoring the lingering flavor. If you're like most WLS patients, though, you find that other than the fleeting moment of bliss you experience as you bite into the trigger food, you feel disappointed in yourself. And fear of completely losing control sets in. Why can't you resist that temptation?
It doesn't matter why. Food is tempting, and certain foods are nearly irresistible. So what can you do? Shield your senses from the most alluring foods. If you don't see it, and you can't smell it, you are much less likely to eat it. Create a safety zone in which you do not have to see, smell, and resist trigger foods all the time.
Action for the day: Choose a trigger food that has been enticing you recently. Remove it from your house today. If you think this will be difficult for you, enlist the help of a trusted friend. Have him or her come over and help you get rid of the trigger food.

I am sure Nana will not mind. I worked out this morning already. Have a good work out and I posted to Nana already on BAF. I have been super busy this week, but when I pop in I will try to encourage you to MOVE that body!! Keep up the good work!

If I may, I have borrowed this from Nana on the lapband thread. I hope she dosen't mind, but I have found it to be very helpful. It just makes you think that we must make exercise an important part of this journey. This is a challenge for me, but very very necessary. I don't lose weight w/just a good diet. I won't be able to go to the gym tonight, so my plan for the day is to walk 2 miles today on my lunch hour @a track near my job. I am so grateful that it is there. How about you?

Do you have good support? For me this is key. I HAVE to have accountability
and encouragement with a few folks.
I don't think there is anything wrong with you. The surgery is just a portion of this journey. It is a giant power tool but not the "fix" we are always hoping for.
Get back up and start again.
Hugs
