VICTORIES

Mar 21, 2010

Since seeing the dietitian, and learning that for the rest of my life I would be eating only 1 cup of food at each meal, something happened to me!!  I have been eating everything in sight.  I have gained back 8 of the 11 pounds that it took me 6 months to lose.  I talked with Dr. McKay (my psychotherapist) about this.  He wasn't too alarmed.  I attended a support group meeting yesterday.  That helped.  My eating is returning back to normal.  Boy, that was scary!!  I was afraid I wasn't going to be able to do this, but then . . . I had a couple of victories!!  One day I was really frustrated and wanted to eat  so I took to journaling; the head hunger left me.  Another, I was standing, staring into the fridge and thought "what am I doing?  I ate a healthy breakfast an hour and a half ago."  I did good by my body.  I don't need anything to eat."  I closed the fridge, got back to work, and forgot about it.  YEAH,  ME!!! 

I have only 1 psychotherapist appointment left, April 5 and I will have met all my requirements for surgery.  I am getting close.
