Finding Peace With Food

Apr 02, 2013

I am 9 days out from surgery, and have moved to pureed foods per my nutritionist's instructions.  I am down from 253 to 237.4 in nine days.  Thankful for this early success.  I am using these first days to learn more about my unhealthy relationship with food. 

Yesterday was a huge first for me.  My husband and I were out on a half day drive, and he decided to order McDonald's.  I actually rode in the car for 45 minutes with that "wonderful" smell of french fries and chicken sandwich filling the car.  Guess what?  I made it.  I realized that I wasn't even hungry.  Head hunger yes; I have never passed up a McDonaldf's that my skinny husband suggested we stop at. 

I am beginning the journey of developing a healthy relationship with food.  I have a long way to go, but at least I am learning.
