CANADA DAY !!

Jul 01, 2012

It is July 1ST today ....HAPPY CANADA DAY EVERYONE !! I have just had my breakfast of one egg white less than 1oz of cheese a slice of whole wheat toast with a laughing cow light and a glass of skim milk.   That is my breakfast ...not that anyone cares but it's my blog.  I have been weighing myself everyday since Thursday and I know I shouldn't it makes me crazy so I am not going to weigh myself until Thursday.  The scale hasn't moved since last Thursday so I am at 296lbs.  Now when I started I was closer to 310lbs but since surgery is so close   I have been watching what I eat and have lost weight ....I did however put on 4 lbs ...No excuses ...so I started my pre- op diet early hence the breakfast menu.   Most other days I wouldn't have  bother with breakfast but I have been working on that.   I have been making an effort to eat breakfast , cut out my beloved ice tea and juice, to exercise more  The taking of pictures is a must but my daughter has broken my camera so they have to wait a little longer how I hate having my picture taken.  I think I do pretty well in the water department as I'm not drinking anything else. The odd tea but I haven't had one in almost 2 weeks. Since I was last at the support group and one is coming up in a few days ....so I will probably have one then ...good old TIMMIES.  Eating slower and smaller bites ....I still catch myself every once and a while wolfing and I have to STOP and put down the fork ....I think all those years having kids that if I didn't eat fast there was no way I'd eat it hot ....so still working on that but it's getting better...... getting rid  of the bad carbs ....they weren't too bad to give up .....I still have 5 servings a day it can be bread, potato's, hot or cold cereal unsweetened of course brown rice and the list goes on .....but you get the picture  I have stayed away from these in the past when dieting but I find that I'm not as hungry any more and if I am starting to feel hungry it is probably almost time for a snack or meal .......and boy do I get grumpy if I don't eat regular wow have things changed. Starting my diet early I think is a good dry run for what is expected ....for the rest of my life really.  Well not sure what today holds but I'm sure I'll be doing something. Oh and I wanted to mention a product I got from Costco MISTO it's an oil sprayer you put your own oil in it pump it and it sprays just like PAM.  I got 2 for like 15-17 dollars a really good find and I have been using it and it works like a charm.   Off to shower and who knows .....
