back on track

Aug 04, 2009

My doc was looking for a 25lb lost by my next vist. I did about 10. Well the last week i have been focusing on my eating and the rules of my pouch. I was seemingly stuck at 226 for 3 weeks including up and down water weight gain. but just by following the rules I have dropped 3 lbs in 4 days. I drink water inbetween meals,  i don't drink  a 1/2hr before or after a meal and I stop when I'm full and a BIGGIE  I don't snack pick or graze inbetween, except healthy like fruit IF I MUST. I plan my daily intake usually the night before and make all effort to stick to it and snacking is back to mostly icees. Also I have found myself more picky about what i eat when it's all you get you want it to be the best including taste wise. I'm practicing hard  to slow down eating but I still have to catch myself, it's almost as if I forget I have the pouch.  I realize now one of my biggest eating downfalls probably was eating way too fast causing me to eat way too much by the time I realized I was full. It apparently can take up to 20 minutes for the brain to register that you are full. I'm still struggling with how I'm losing weight from the top down. I really want to see my stomach and inner thighs go bye bye. Now my stomach's developing a lower pouch like somebody just pasted on layers of fat, even my thighs seemed padded. Anyway I delayed my check in until 8/14 it was originally 8/7, hopefully I will have lost enought to walk in there felling like I'v done my part althiough I haven't exercised in 3 weeks or more, pooh.
