I have to confess that last night my husband, who has been wonderful through all of this, made an awesome dinner for him and the kids (homemade hamburgers and french fries...smothered in gravy, of course! LOL!)
I was already 'jumping ahead' on the diet to week 3 and trying a scrambled egg, but I just had to try one of those french fries...I cut that thing up small and chewed and chewed and chewed. It went down fine and I felt ok. So of course I had to have another because I wasn't full, right?! Ended up having 4 fries - even said out loud to my husband that I still wasn't full, but I should stop.
Well, when I walked away and went to sit down at my computer, I felt awful, like I might vomit. I didn't, but it showed me that I had made a bad choice and it wasn't worth getting sick over. The fries were ok...I was really just missing the chewing action for sure.
