I ate breakfast fine today. I had 1/2 a cup of oatmeal with whey. I made lunch and dinner and guess what I did?? I left it at home. I get to work and I have nothing healthy to eat so I go the whole day with just sipping water and chewing sf gum. I get off work and order a steak sope (its like a small round taco but not really a taco). I didnt eat the shelling because I am scared of stretching my band.

 

SO I am taking small bites and chewing well. I was so hungry that I kept eating until I started getting a little pain my stomach. literally right below my boobs. I was amazed at the small amount of food that I consumed sent me over the edge. now I feel like i have a food baby. my band only has 1cc in it so idk what I did wrong. I wonder if that was a sign that i was close to being full or if it was a sign that i was full. it was my bad day at work that led to my stress and the fact thAT I DID NOT TAKE A BREAK TODAY.

 

in other news i find it amazing that everyone is noticing my weight loss. My friend said it looked like i had lost 100 lbs when i really only lost about 66. that makes me happy and gives me the strenght to continue. I know i can do this. since I am still new to this and learning how to work with my band I take this day as a lesson. double check my purse for my lunch. lol or always keep a protein shake in my purse.

I can imagine what the day was like at work without food. I have not returned to work yet, but I know one of the new changes I will have to make is preparing and packing food for work ahead of time. In another note, Congrats on your weight loss. I know you are excited about it.

Thank you!! I am very happy about the weight loss. I am very anal about making food charts for the week and making sure each meal has 60-80g of protein. I fell off when I did the liquid diet but now I am getting back on track. It was horrible not eating and then having those issues with my secondary meal choices. I just have to make sure I grab my lunch. :)
