Any of us can do better...I was thinking the same thing as I posted and put away the stuff I didn't eat yesterday...I take far more to work than I actually can eat. It's force of habit with me.

Your list looks pretty good! Enough protein with the carbs..It works. I also sometimes have kettle corn before bed time...I just can't sleep with an empty stomach. it's actually what wakes me up in the morning. LOL. It's either a snack or a whole bunch of water for me.

Good job! Keep up the good work. At least lots of activity makes the week go faster. See ya.

AMY...........

It really is amazing what one person can take for years and years...I'm so sorry that you've been through this all but you have to admit, you are ONE STRONG PERSON! Most people would fold up. I know I would. People just don't understand and they have the exact same issues as you do, they just handle it differently...They eat, you starve..Don't beat yourself up because people don't understand. It's not your fault that they don't understand. They just don't.

As for being able to stop eating or eating too much, I wouldn't have needed the surgery at all if I could have stopped and I definitely needed the surgery to lose the weight. I was a food addict. I am a food addict. I admit that.

Most people just don't understand how mental it is after weight loss surgery. It's totally mental after a certain point. You're struggling. We can all see that. The struggle just is way more than some people can handle. Some people end up back up 100-200 pounds and some (a few, not many) end up lower and struggling to keep weight on. Like you..But you've already been through so much, it amazes people how much you've been through without being put in a rubber room. Hell, my grandmother was put in a mental institute for post-partum depression (psh! for nothing!)

Feel better!

Hi Ladies,

Well, all the family has returned to their own distant shores ...It was great having them, exciting seeing my 1st born graduate and overall a really nice extended weekend... HOWEVER, I did not think about the food at all, totally ate whatever I wanted and had one minor dumping episode because of it...Tomorrow is the start of one big fat DO-OVER to make up for 5 totally questionable days...Life happens, time to get back to basics...

 Thanks for being here...Alesia

Good for you! That's cool that you didn't think about it, but not cool that you dumped. You're rightly entitled to a do-over..LOL.

I'm glad you had a good time. See ya.
