A Battle Till The End
Sep 09, 2009
I was surfing the web today and began to read theworldaccordingtoeggface.com which is another useful site for pre & post-ops. I was kind of down on myself because I am not making much progress on changing the behaviors that have gotten me here. As Shelly says, "You can't continue the same behavior and expect a different result." I just can't seem to pin point exactly what has led me here because I have so many bad habits that I feel have brought me to wls. So, which bad habit do I attempt to change first. The small steps I have taken are minimal. Cutting out all the sugary drinks with sugar free drinks and not drinking with meals are about the only real changes I have made. And I'm not 100% with these changes...maybe 75%. I have realized how heavy of a snacker I am too. I'm not really an emotional eater, but do have certain foods that trigger me to throw caution to the wind & grub. I just don't carve out meals like I should. I eat as I feed the kids their meals or grab what I can between whatever I have to do. In order for me to follow the 3 squares with 2-3 snacks regimen, I am going to have to plan which means adding something else to my plate.My God...please help me to figure this thing out. I pray for the will to do what is right. I do not want to go through such drastic measure and end up a fat ass again. I really want to adopt Shelly's mantra that "You can't continue the same behavior and expect a different result." This really does summarize how to look at wls. It isn't a quick fix even though you may get some quick results simply from the nature of RNY. This is a lifestyle change that is really going to be a daily battle.
