Diet ???

i get it i do we all need to make better choices when it comes to food ..however if i bought fat-free,sugar-free tasteless foods i would not have needed this surgery to begin with about 9yrs ago i lost 85lbs on my own,got pregnant,had my thyroid removed and wham its back, i joined a gym back in may and have lost very little weight...guess what i like food so as far as a diet they dont work for me will i make better food choices for the most part yes i will .. will i always make the right or best choice prob not but because of the band i will stop at one slice of pizza and not eat 4 or 5,and as far as a diet not for me...so i dont understand when some people say diet,low fat, sugar free yap.yap,yap !!!! thanks for letting me get this off my chest ....

I'm just really observant with my calorie intake. I try to keep it ~1000 calories a day. I used to obsess about it, but now I'm like "hey, if I go over, it's not like the 3000 calories a day I used to eat"

In regards to me trying to cut down on sugars, I find that if I eat a lot of sugar, by 3pm I'm sluggish, once again, I don't make an effort to be sugar free, etc but I'm going to choose splenda over sugar, or a sugar free/ff vanilla latte over just a fat free latte.

I say do whatever works for you and as long as your MD is fine with it then have fun! LOL
