John-Smith, Great point on watching our thought process and keep weeding out the negative words that keep us from our goals. New habits are formed in 21 days. So there's hope that eventually those old canbe replaced with healthy habits. And like you said when we fail, which we will from time to time, cause we're are human, we brush ourselves off and keep on going forward and know we are not alone. Effie

My dear, That's why they're called habits....but hey a few chips is better than a bag.....Use this time as a great learning experience....where could you have intervened? and When? What helps me is always having a protein drink or water with me at all times. Don't be so hard on yourself, stress does a lot of things to us all. I'm so sorry to hear about your father and I just know you have the inner strength to go through the road ahead. You are never alone . We've all in this together. Tomorrow is another day, learn and move on sweetie and God bless you and your family.

I needed to hear this. This is day 7 of my preop and I have been so grouchy to my hubby....Tomorrow is another day....getting a little anxious. Effie
