I've had two not so controlled days.  I feel like a MOOOOCOW!.  Mind you, my calories have only hit about 1100/day, but I'm not used to that.  And I ate a 210 calorie/ 40 carb bagel today.  That's the first bread I have had since surgery 6 months ago.  I feel like dung.  Tomorrow I shall stick to the plan.  I need to find a way to maintain without eating poorly.

Well this doesn't sound too serious. Remeber, Mooooocows eat only grass and they have two stomachs!  You have only .2 stomach. So you are no mmmoooooooooocooooow!    Did the bread itself make you feel physically bad or is it just the emotional thing?  1100 calories is fine if you are maintaining and not so bad even if you are still losing. tomorrow will be better. If you wish to punish yourself, go outside and graze LOL (or come here to do it - the yard needs mowing).

The bread made me feel too full, yet unfulfilled.  This is emotional eating.  Stress or depression or something.  I think I'll get Brandylyns books.

I do know what you mean in spite of my cow jokes. I have not had a bagel since pre surgery and feel like it i ate a potato or something it would be all over. Of course its not but i get the fear factor. I have "shrink yourself" . need to read it.  diane

Isn't it strange how we can feel that way by eating one thing that seems like "cheating".  I do the same thing.  I try not to beat myself up, because I'm almost to goal.  But "almost" isn't good enough.  If I didn't do that, I would probably be at goal now.  I did better today.  Tomorrow I'm going to work outdoors preparing my hosta garden so I think I'll do ok then too.  Planning on baked fish for dinner.

Some people might not support my WLS decision. 
Those people remind me of slinkys. Not good for much but it would would bring a smile to my face if someone pushed them down the stairs.

Over 100 lbs!   You've done amazing!   I don't want to fall back into that grazing track.  It's too easy.  I need a plan for tomorrow.  I seem to do about 5 days of "clean" eating, then breakout for a few days.  Seems to be a pattern.  Good luck tomorrow!
