Merry Christmas!!!
We had a lot of people over for Christmas Eve and we had a great time. I cooked quite a dinner, with the help of my Mom, and everyone loved it. I wish I could say that I was being a good WLS patient, but I am not. My eating habits over the last few days have been very bad. I have had some cookies and other treats that I should not have had and I can feel the difference in myself because I am not being "compliant". I am not being so bad that I am worried about a stretched pouch or anything, but I have dumped a few times over the last few days, and it is my fault. I feel that by writing about it where others can read it I am making myself be held accountable for my actions, but I need to get back on track. I have been exercising a lot and I hate the fact that I am throwing a lot of that work away because I wanted a cookie or two... I guess this is part of the adiction part of weight loss surgery. I am reading this book called Eat it Up and it really makes to think about things differently. I need to pick it up and read some more.
The funny thing about eating bad is that I feel rundown. I have no energy, and my pouch is yelling at me because I hear it talking to me ALL the time. My husband and I were watching TV and yesterday he could hear my pouch screaming over the television, it was funny, but not because of the reason that it was doing it.
As for my goal, I am still stalled, but I am loosing inches, so I am not as concerned about the numbers on the scale right now. I am working out like a crazy person, starting personal training three days per week starting on January 6th, and still doing cardio, which will mean a 6 day a week routine... it will be good and the trainer also goes over what you eat. I have given him a copy of the guidelines from my NUT so he is aware of my unique situation... we will see how that goes.
I will go for now... I will try and post again, it seems like this would be a good year to set a good New Years Resolution.
