Jeez...this pre-op weight loss is hard! I'm on 800 calories a day. Found myself feeling exhausted and upped my caloric intake to 1000/day. Doing 30 minutes of walking on 610 calories does not work for me. Can anyone say, "Abandon ship! Darragha's going down!"
Today I ate some chicken for lunch snip snap snop. It was gone. Did I chew? I don't think so. Did I even notice or enjoy the food as it went from plate to gob? Nope.
I am more full right now than I have felt in over 2 weeks because I snarfed my food! At least it was lean chicken and not a vat of pasta--but I snarfed my food! I'm supposed to be working on NOT blinding shoveling and performing serious snarfage rituals.
Chew chew chew.
Eat slowly.
Consider your meal as a guest to your body and don't devour it in one bite!
I am not the Big Bad Wolf! But today, I feel like it.
Get your fingers away or you might be in some serious trouble {{{snap!}}}
