Huh- 9 weeks out and I have lost 60 pounds and I am off all meds for high blood pressure and chloesterol. I chose to stay on the diabetes med for just a bit longer-my doct is just having me cut the pill in half so I dont go back to my surgeon and primary until March 16th--wow-- I will be past the honeymoon stage then. I am able to eat everything now instead of the restricted soft food menu-yeah. I feel soo guilty cause for dinner last night I split a chicken breast with my dog and had some cut up chicken with pasta and broccoli. I was at my sisters house and I didnt measure but it had to be a cup of pasta- a lot of cut up chicken and I sprinkled some balsamic vinegar over it. I made sure to eat slow but I felt sooooo guilty eating all of it and eating the pasta. I know we can eat (slowly getting up to it eventually)up to a cup in a half of food but it was too early to start it so I feel sooo guilty. I didnt eat anything else the rest of the night and for lunch I tried a turkey wrap but after 2 bites I threw the wrap past out and just ate the turkey.
So I have been sick with strep throat and bronchitus all week and I have not worked out for 8 freakin days and I decided to go this morning and I did all the weights with extra repetitions and then i decided to do cardio for 20 minutes and tried the way the trainer told me to do it and I thought I was going to die but I finished it. In pain but finished it-- oh yeah the chest hurt soo bad from breathing so hard and fast-- ughh-- I want to go and work out tomorrow too but we will see. But then I went to my sisters to pick up her dog (family went out of town) and what the heck did I eat? 3 choc chip chips ahoy cookies and 1 mounds bar (from Halloween) AND i DIDNT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT--JUST DID IT!!! Hello-- I have not felt good the rest of the day- i ended up taking my sisters dog and mine for a long walk and I really thought I was going to collapse a few times-- crazy. What the heck was I freakin doing? These lapses scare me-- cant go back to the old me-- must pay attention at all times. Ughhh
So I am dog sitting for friends tonight and I bought 1 fillet of tilapia and a bag of steamed broccoli and cauliflower and cottage cheese-- should take me a few dinners to eat all!! LOL Oh well -- must pay attention and not let mind get the best of me--

Just wanted to let you know you shouldn't beat yourself up so much! We will all have set backs I'm sure along our journey, we are still human and our cravings haven't disappeared at least not for me. What I did was go out and but a sugar free snack, so when my daughter has her snack I too can join her. You just have to watch and only eat the serving sizes recommended. You do have to watch the sugars because they will make you feel bad and sometimes they can even make you throw up, so please be careful.
Keep posting because everybody will support you and try to give you help so you don't want the bad things.
Hugs as always,
Margaret
P.S. Keep up the good work with your weight lose, you are doing well!!!
