Boo Hoo - Appointment Canceled for one day

I was all ready for my appointment today, I was so sure I was going to get food added to my menu and let me tell you I was ready! I just got a call, the Doctor is running late with his surgeries and I am cancelled till tomorrow afternoon. I know it's not much longer, but I was looking forward to something else to eat! Oh well, maybe I'll lose another pound waiting. :)

Yeah, he knows I had the lapband. I am going to go mostly by my sheet, but also on how I feel. I know what I need to do and what I need not to do. I am going to let the dietician know, if not for anything else to keep this from happening to someone else. It really upset me, but just because he had totally changed everything she told me, then he added a whole extra week of his way of eating instead of adding the meats etc. I'm not mad or upset anymore, just had to get it out of my system instead of letting it eat at me. :) I just wasn't at all happy with my visit, so that set me off too. It's behind me, and I will be fine! Now, what's for breakfast? :) I actually have a choice today! It's funny, because I'm really not hungry either! lol

Betty, if you're not hungry, don't eat. And stick to your plan. Go look at our Junk Food Challenge thread and you'll see what can happen once you let bad choices slip in (this won't happen right away, but once you're more comfy, it's easy to give in to willpower.) I wish I'd never have picked up the first goodie. Stick with individual serving size things as best as you can to control portions. A lot of us are having trouble right now because we picked up that one first bite of cookie, ice cream, etc. So you have a fresh chance and can learn from us. Stick with that sheet just like you said you would, and enjoy all your new choices. Don't ever give up, and don't ever give in, or you'll find yourself subscribing to our Junk Food Challenge thread, and that's a place you don't want to be. Show us how it's done, band girl!

Thanks Lisa! I have learned so much from you gals. I guess that's why when he said what he did I got so upset. The first thing out of my mouth to my DH was the girls on my board don't eat this way! They eat like normal people, 3 times a day not every hour! lol See, I learn from y'all real fast!

Right now, I don't have trouble with any sweets. I just am not a sweet eater, but usually at Christmas I make up for it. This year I am not going to get hooked! If I do, I will be in your challenge along side of y'all. lol

Betty, I think you are doing exactly the right thing. I think some of these drs. need to try some of their own advice before telling their patients to do it!
