Food fantasies

I like food,no scratch that. I LOVE FOOD. Im IN LOVE WITH FOOD. It has never let me down or stood me up. Food has loved me for who I am. However it has smothered me with it's sweet,salty, warm, golden goodness.

 

So when I was banded on June 23rd,2008. I decided that FOOD and i had to take a break...you go your way FOOD and I will go my way. I told FOOD that I had to find out who I was on my own terms.

 

So here I am 9 months later, and 51-60 lbs lighter pending on the week).

 

And you know what? I miss you FOOD, but I miss your friendship and history. I do not miss your all encompassing influence. That was not a healthy love affair. Although we may once in awhile CHEAT with one another FOOD. I have to let you know we wont ever be like we were again.

 

I started a relationship with someone else and his name is THE BAND

So Real

So many smaller & thiner people would have worse eating habits than me.I use to feel it wasn't fair to eat & gain weight. Now with the band, I know Life isn't always fair but It's still good!

Thumbs up! I call mine the Food Monster. I told him (yes, it is a HIM) that he could have free reign over my diet for two last days and then it was over.
