What I shouldn't be doing.....
May 25, 2010
After attending 5 of the 6 Nutrition appointments, I am pretty aware of things I will need to change for my new, well my new me. Things I have tried...and maybe should have tried a little harder.......
I know I eat WAY too FAST. I take WAY too BIG of Bites. There are times when I actually stop and think, and I take smaller bites, and I will chew and chew and chew. I will pause between bites. But that's been rare. I know that is not good enough. I really need to focus on that more. Not eating without thinking, I need to think about every bite, every time.
Another thing, I drink, A LOT, of water or beverage WITH my meals. That has to stop also...that will be EXTREMELY hard. I do drink calorie free beverages including water so that is not a problem, however, I do like Diet Pepsi/Coke. I don't drink much nor often, but now that I need to give it up.......I am always craving it. If I am out, I have every intention of getting water or unsweet tea, but then think......man would diet coke taste good right now, and since I won't be having them anymore, then well may as well get one today while I can.
Not good, I know. Let's not even discuss caffiene at this point.......arghhh.
I am sure there are other things I can't think of right now that I should be working on.
How about any of you Pre-Op out there? What are your issues you should be working on...and are you having success? I mix it up between being good knowing the right thing to do...and then other times saying, well it could be a L O N G time or FOREVER before I get to have this again, so I will have it 1 more time.....Anyone else in this same mind set?
