Started Making changes

Aug 08, 2012

So I started making changes to my life style as of eight days ago. I stopped all the junk food and candy as you all know. I have been tracking calories (myfitnesspal.com) and being mindful of what of my intake (what goes in my mouth lol). I am really trying. I got on the scale and I have lost one pound this week putting me at 252 pounds from 263 pounds. I am taking my multi vitim everyday and started walking and looking into classes at the BCBS gym accross the street (free for employees) I am so happy that the food will no longer be an issue. I am not letting anyone or any situation take this joy from me.I feel happy!!!! Cant wait to have the pills for BP & Diabeties type 2 taken away. I am happy to replace them with protein and vitm that support my body and mission to the new me. I think I will call this WLJ just that. "MISSION TO THE NEW AND BETTER / HEALTHIER ME" So I look forward to my pre op-visit set for 08/31/2012 Friday and I will do all three in one day and thats it until surgery. I cant believe its here. I talked to my sister who also had the RNY and has lost 200 pounds plus (she is standing on the losers bench lol) and she said "Girl 9/12 is your new birthday) Well I knw one thing a year from now on 09/12/2013 I would love to be in onederland and in a better place health wise. Anyway I am at work and running my mouth lol (as usual)  . I really Love OH and journaling keeps me sane...Ohhh I have a date tonight  we will see how that goes....

Food on the brain

Aug 05, 2012

 7:24p
I am praying after this surgery I don't have food on the brain all the time. I wonder if other OH members feel this way. It's hard to not think about sweets and or your next meal.Sometimes I feel like if I chew a piece of gum then the sensation to put something in my mouth will go away.... IDK Just confused right now! uhhhh
