New Year

Jan 10, 2012

SO here it is, a brand new year and an old me (heehee).

I look in the mirror and see a thin, healthy person. Goal achieved, success has been had and yes, I did the work.

I read the posts and wonder if people really get this whole surgery thing.  This is not a temperary "diet", this is not a quick fix to be skinny, questions and stupid questions and I wonder, were these people listening.   How much water can I drink with vitamins- are you kidding me - just swallow the dam things.  Live a life and stop fussing. 

I am so glad for the head tools before this whole ride. I look in the mirror and see "me".  I look at pictures before surgery and wonder who was that.  How did I get that way.  How did I turn into someone else, during my life. 

Why didn't I see the fat person before the fat person turned into me.  

Anyhow, I still test the waters, and stumble and then I get up and try again. 

Things to avoid ... 
eggs - not so good and truly don't taste that great - hard boiled is ok  
peanut butter is not worth hassle - Earl doesn't care for it - love how the girls named my tum Earl - I would have picked Tanya or Tammy Tummy or something cute - but Earl (?)
Nachos - yuck and not worth the melted cheese - do not feel well after eating that supper
Chinese noodle is suicide - for now, in the past it was fine
bread is ok, 1 slice toasted with cheese or cream cheese
meat is fine and so if tuna
all vegetables and fruit is great


If I could eat one thing that I really and truly miss - one large huge piece of cheesecake - although eating a sliver does satisfy the taste. 

All in all, life is fine and eating is a chore.  Drinking is task that I have to think about.  Have not yet made water a habit in my day.
