Well, made it back from B'ham without problems. I did cheat though. Hubby and I went to CheeseCake Factory for supper Saturday night. I did well for supper. I only ate a piece of steak, rwo onion rings,and 4-5 french fries. My downfall was the chocolate brownie cheese cake I ate for dessert. I ate half of it Sautrday night and the other half Sunday night. Sunday night was bad. I am going to remember how bad I felt after eating the cheesecake that night. Being in the car driving home Sunday I did not drink enough fluids and I am trying to make up for it today. I can tell when I have pushed my eating limit. The burping becomes ridiculous and the flatulence that comes later is also bad. I would like to promise that I will be good eating wise, but I know I can't. I know that I will slip again. It is the nature of an addict, which I am a food addict. But I am going to be extra aware of what I do and eat. Am going back to B'ham in two weeks to care for daughter after she has procedure done. I hope hubby will stay home. Since daughter does Paleo diet, I think it will be easier to stay on a good diet at her house. If he's not there, I will cook better. Will write again later .

Thanks for sharing, it is so hard for us addicts to admit when we fall. But the key is we admit it, learn how to deal and move forward. I think the hardest thing for most of us is accepting that one bite will never be enough. Sometimes I think, life is so unfair, why can that skinny person eat what ever they want. But you know I bet they have their own demons to fight we just can't see them. Hope your next trip goes better, remember we take this one day at a time. Good luck.

I agree...we can say the 1st bite tastes the same as the last but the reality is that we love to eat! Do you find it difficult to cook for your family and eat just the amount you're supose to? My husband and I are both just starting this journey. We planning to both have the procedure so we can do it together and I'm hoping that it might make it a little easier since we'll both have to be aware. Thanks for sharing and best of luck!

I think that if we deny ourselves then we are setting ourselves up for failure. At least you recognize that you have to get back on track and it seems you know the right way to do it. Don't beat yourself up too bad.
