YOU! You are the only one who can change YOU! It takes will power, anger, prayer and faith that you can change you. I decided to become debt free about 5 years ago. I went through the Financial Peace class and it didn't do a darned bit of good. We later spent more money on crap and stuff and later, fell into more debt than we could ever expect. We had the tool right there in our hands and it did nothing to help us. Did we not listen? Nope, we werent low enough in our own funk to get mad enough about our situation to change our lives. (What does this have to do with food? Everything!!) Anyhow, Dave Ramsey talks about how you must become angry with your situation and the crap that you put yourself into to get to this point in your life. You have to become angry about your habits that get you into trouble and you will never change your habits until you become enraged and want and need to change. Only then will you be willing to make changes, use tools offered to you and stick with it. Whether it is money or food, it is all the same! You must become angry enough to never want to throw food into your belly that you are going to regret later. And no matter how many times someone offers you the tools to change, it won't mean a damn thing until you want to use them. This lap band won't help at all until you become mad enough to use it right.

Make the decision, get mad about it, it is up to you. I finally got mad enough when I realized that I would not get to run with my grand children or feel sexy in front of my husband.

Wow, I have lost 3lbs so far. I am excited about that. I started full liquids today, so I get stained soups, fudge bars and chocolate pudding. I feel fuller longer now. On the liquids I was about to hurst someone, lol. I still have lots of gas and I hope that gets better. I still cannot lay on my left side, just too painful. I walked today, not very far though.

See you tommorrow
