There isn’t a whole lot to tell these days! I’ve moved up to more normal foods thank heavens! What I have learned is I have a horrible fear of BREAD!!!! On my list of foods I can have is WELL toasted toast. Whole grain of course. I almost flipped a lid! And baked tortilla chips?! REALLY!????? But I had a talk with my nutritionist and realized that a half a piece of well toasted toast is not going to put me back at 300 pounds! Having some baked tortilla chips with salsa is also not going to make me go completely backwards! There are ways to deal with these kinds of situations. Portions!!!!! It’s what everyone talks about anyway! Portion sizes are EVERYTHING! I was even told to get some whole wheat pasta! PASTA OF ALL THINGS!!!! NO WAY!!!!! But really what’s a 1/4 cup of whole wheat pasta going to do to you?!
I’m truly learning all over again how to eat and what to eat. Slow and steady wins the race and keeping track of what you take in is the most important thing you can do.
Here’s the new issue I’ve found. I try something new like Tuna Salad or chicken and after I eat it that one time I never want to eat it again! It’s like after you eat a food and it makes you sick you can’t stand looking at it again. It’s EXACTLY like that. I can’t imagine this is a good idea for down the line! LOL I’m going to have to eat something at some point! So, now i’m trying to figure out how to work around this issue. It’s not fun, but something that has to be done. I need to get into a better schedule and more planning so I know what’s coming and how to prepare for it. Honestly I can’t eat but a 1/4 cup of anything so it’s a matter of getting it down!
I’m down about 56 pounds since last march and I feel really good! But I have to get this eating under control and i have to make sure I’m getting in everything I have to. If I don’t I’m going to be in a world of hurt! Fingers crossed everyone!!!
