Eating too much?
4/22/08. So yesterday when I was at my doctor's office, his MA asked me if I was measuring my food. Well I told her I didn't, I know it's bad, etc. etc. Well she told me that they had to take 3 people back to surgery in the last month to correct band slips. That scared me, because there are days that I push my band a little too much. So then my doctor comes in and gives me the same spill about measuring my food and not overeating my band. I'm really nervous about this. I guess that I have to go back to the basics and no more eyeballing. I definately don't want to end up back in the OR to have my band fixed. They have some little condiment cups that they give for quick measurement and I"m going to use them, and make sure I'm not eating too much meat and other stuff. I also decided that I'm giving up potatoes. I love them, and I eat way too many french fries, baked potatoes, and mashed potatoes. I guess it's the country girl in me (my dad was a potatoe farmer). I'm actually kinda depressed about it, but I can replace them with much healthier options. This one's gonna be tough, but I really want to make my goal and these little things are really sabataging my efforts. I'll keep you updated on how life without potatoes will be  I'm feeling really tight today. I still haven't eaten real food yet. I tried some cottage cheese and it hasn't bothered me. I think that I will hold off on solids until tomorrow night and see how I do. I think that I was swollen when I got my fill. I had a PB episode the night before, and I didn't know this until I visited the doc yesterday that if you PB you shouldn't eat solid for 24 hours. Guess that's another thing I am going to have to correct. New goals for month 9 ~exercise 4 x a week ~measure all my food ~give up potatoes **workout** 25 min bike, 30 min weights. 0 Comment(s)
