Saving my Life ..

So much of this weight loss happens in our own heads/hearts/souls.  I find myself looking around at the other patrons in a restaurant and what they're choosing.  You can really tell who's trying and who isn't.  I can also tell if I'm definitely in the wrong restaurant if over half the people are obese!

I am trying to raise a healthy child in this unhealthy environment.  It's not easy.  She's bombarded by commercials, sodas at friend's houses, etc.  Sugar is everywhere!  

I am pre-op and not eating the right food yet...surgery in less than 2 weeks, but it was encouraging when I went to the movies this past weekend that they now offer Dannon Greek Yogurt as a choice.  I think it is the kind with fruit and sugar, but I was thinking to myself that we Sleevers could eat most of it without stirring it, and get only a little bit of the sugar/fruit portion, but eat most of it plain. 

Yes, we can get our drug of choice on any street corner in America.  It is a drug that the rest of the world doesn't say is a drug.
