Take a deep breath, step back and relax. You recognize that you are making bad choices so choose today to stop that behaviour. Go back to basics....protein first, mindful eating, no starchy carbs, you know the drill.
Keep the treats and "crap" out of your house or at least out of your sight. If you can't resist the temptation of eating something don't buy it or make it for others.
You still have a functioning pouch and I dare say you should still be in your honeymoon phase. Yes, it gets harder the further out you are but you said it, you don't want to fail after re-arranging your innards.
If you want it you can do it! Blinders on and just keep on going, you've got this!! Participate in the daily Menu thread, be accountable to us and yourself. Weigh every meal, log every portion. Know what is going in your mouth. You can obviously see the consequences of not doing so.
Keep coming back here for support!

Went to meet my surgeon today and got my surgery date! No optifast because my liver is a normal size and my surgery is January 8th!
Pre-Op nutritional refresher on December 20th and then they will call for my pre admit and I'll be on the losers bench!
Thanks to everyone that offered encouragement and information. It's been around a year since I asked for my referral and I'm at St. Joe's in Hamilton and my surgeon will ideally be Dr. Hong.
Too funny Meg!!!

Oh yes, slurping is really annoying... I can't stand the way my brother drinks fluids. It is this loud gulping slurp. I can't even describe it.
Also, I had an epiphany after reading your post... You put "dough head" which totally makes sense. But I always thought when people said it they meant "doh head" like doh from the Simpsons. My world is just a little brighter now lol. I guess I have never seen it written down before.
Good morning! Sorry your day didn't go as planned, that can be frustrating.
Was hoping to do my weight routine at the gym this morning but I sprained my ring finger on my right hand going on two weeks ago now and it just couldn't hold the heavy weights. I did what I could (cuz I'm stubborn like that) and then did some extra cardio. Didn't help that the "older fella" I usually talk to in the morning hasn't seen me for a while so he gave me a crushing handshake. I almost yelped out loud. He felt so bad. I didn't figure he would squeeze so hard.
QOTD: people slurping their coffee, tea or soup.....anything really. I just want to punch them in the face.

Good morning :)
Yesterday did not go as planned. Little nugget ended up with a bit of a fever, probably from her needles. I also spent a bunch of time helping my cousin register for his college classes.
Also, I had a bit of a brain fart regarding my blood work on Monday. Usually I go in the morning but I went after lunch because of the time of our doctors' appointments. Well, I didn't think and I took my meds at lunch time so much blood work levels came back abnormally high. I will have to get them redone.
QOTD: what is your least favourite sound? I can't stand the sound of eating utensils clinking together. Or them scraping on a plate. I also hate emptying the utensils out of the dishwasher. I would rather do almost any other chore :)
