Son\'s Birthday Party

We celebrated my son's 12th birthday yesterday and I was tempted by the pizza. I knew that I couldn't physically eat the pizza because of the surgery. One of my weaknesses is pizza, I finally removed myself from the food area of the party and went outside. I felt accomplished but realizaed that I would have sabotaged my efforts of a helathy life style by eating more than one piece of pizza before surgery. This is such a sickness and I have such a long road to go. Will my food addiction get any easier as my stomach heals?  I am thrilled that the cake and ice cream part didn't even bother me. It would have been an eat it because it is part of the celebration. I didn't miss that part. All in all I think the party went well. I did over do it with not resting and being up to long and I ended up taking my pain med. Of course it made me wound up and I had a hard time getting relaxed to finally go to sleep.
