Topic: RE: Hear what is not said.

Diana, I'm new to this forum, but I wanted to come give you a big hug. Surgery can awaken so many feelings in us. I'm sorry that this has been a difficult time for you. I hope that your family comes around and will be supportive of your efforts to find renewed good health. I was very open with my son about my surgery and talked about how I felt about it. He had a good understanding and while he lives 3000 miles away, he checks in several times a week to see how I'm doing. If you can, ask your girls to support you and let them know that surgery was for more than vanity reasons.

We're all here to support you!

Topic: RE: My surgery story

I am glad to hear you are pain free and doing so well. I am so sorry you lost your furbaby right before surgery..I have three kitties and I love them so much..I can't imagine going through that trama right before a life changing surgery. Some people just don't understand that we can love our furry ones like family. Was nice that the doctor fixed the hernia for you. I don't know what an ON-Q is..I had liquid vicoden to drink and it tasted aweful..so Im glad your pain meds are working good for you. Welcome to the losers bench..we saved you a seat...now you can sit and enjoy the view..Hugs,Katie

Adore Yourself!!!

Topic: RE: Do you know your trigger foods?

YES! I know them... all of them... all to well I'm afraid.
We are not casual acquaintances...
We have been best friends...

thankfully, at some point in our lives we learn the difference between real friends and friends that only "say" they our friends.
At some point... we must break that friendship.
It can be difficult... but it is the best thing for us.

I started to reconnect with my friend "Chip" this afternoon.
Decided that even though He is irresistible... he really is no good for me. He is for the birds!

So that's where he is...
out under the bird bath... & spread near the bushes for all my little birdies to enjoy!

I should Never open another bag of chips- when no one is around to eat the rest!!!!

Topic: Do you know your trigger foods?

Avoid the foods that do you in.

What, if any, foods trigger negative emotions in you? Do you crave certain foods? Are there foods that make you feel deprived? These foods are the ones to avoid as much as possible.

No one is perfect, but the people who succeed at lasting weight loss are the ones who understand how certain foods negatively affect them and eliminate those foods from their diet. Try to be honest with yourself as you examine your feelings during meals.

Action for the day: In your journal, write down how you feel about this day's inspiration. Do any foods come to mind that you need to consider eliminating from your diet?
