Listening to my body....
Saturday my hubby and I had to work out who took the car for the day.... no argument or anything, but it was a struggle figuring out a plan so we could both get where we needed to be. I had just had breakfast about 20 min previous... but I noticed as soon as we were into this discussion/balancing act, I wanted to go eat! I wanted to just "solve" the problem with food! Now if that's not my old way of thinking I don't know what is! Makes me wonder how many times I ate in the past (preop) under similar conditions and never made the connection.... hummmm.... I am learning! And it IS about progress, not perfection! :)

Oh I am the SAME way!! I don\'t think about eating nearly as much now and I tend to make better choices when I do, but the other day was a doozy at work and the second I had a minute to think that\'s where my mind went- to what I could eat! It\'s amazing and I know I gained all my weight (pre-op) due to emotional eating. Realizing it is the best way not to repeat it! :)
