I wasn't even obsessing over any of the wrong foods but those Rotisserie Chickens were calling my name laying there looking all Sexy.

Yup, they're soooo shameless. I've been doing whole chickens in the crock-pot (slow-cooker) lately and find they are actually every bit as good and far healthier. I leave the skin on and give the whole thing a Mrs Dash Herb and Garlic massage and lay it on top of veggies, with some no-salt chicken broth. I try not to eat the skin but cooking with the skin helps keep them as moist as the ones at the store and mine aren't pumped full of fats and salt.

I'm a terrible (lazy) cook so if I can do this anyone can. LOL

I think tomorrow will be interesting because its Clear Liquids followed by a 2.am Wake-up to catch a 5:30 am flight to Mx and nothing by mouth after 12 am. The next Several days have been talked about for 15 years but now its time to set my Fear of the unknown aside and make a change for the BETTER!!!

So I am 24 days Post Op and down 27lbs from my Surgery weight. As I look back I realize although it was difficult it was so worth going into Surgery in the most Healthy state that I could get in. I really plan on creating some low carb options for all of those coming behind us that will be enduring the liquid diet. Puree is almost worse than liquid because it takes 10 or so Delicious ingredients and makes it taste like Blah lol.

I am 12 days from my one year Surgiversary and I tell you it is as hard today as it was a year ago. I have finally admitted to myself that I have a food Addiction Duh I know right. I always thought that I could quit anytime I want but now I find that I have to adhere to a Schedule. So now its 3 small meals and one afternoon snack. Stay away from the Carbs and the Sugars and Cheat Days turn into Cheat months for me, so its better just not to do them. I am still a work in Progress.

Those roasted chickens lurk right next to the fresh baked bread in my store. Talk about obnoxious evil,stress upon my wavering convictions. Wanted to spray air freshener but with my luck it would be Apple cinnamon. Help, please remove me from here!😦

Duly noted that all grocery shopping for 1 month before and 3 months after must be done by my husband. I'll be sure to tell him that was a direct order from my dietitian. lol

      It has hit me today, as I sit in my chair at work that I don't have my belly sticking out to where it would hit the desk. Oh and I can cross my legs more comfortably. It amazes me just how much I have loss in inches vs actual pounds, I have lost 24 lbs all together. But I believe in inches all over about 3 inches. I am noticing more energy and have pep to my step. My skin is a lot clearer. My watch band is shorter by 3 notches. the little things are what I am noticing. When I bend over I don't feel out of breath or I am going to fall over ( weeble wobble). 
      I am having a hard time with my sweet tooth, it is very hard to not want to get some ice cream or chocolate. Candy I can do without. I have no craving really for that, just chocolate and ice cream. I have gone as far as taking Popsicle and putting them in my mixer with almond milk and making like ice cream with that/ sometimes I have added un-flavored protein powder. 
      I feel better everyday. The energy is great to have with having younger kids and being able to have the energy to keep up. 😃

      If anyone has any advice on how to make your stomach feel better after you eat something you shouldn't have or at too fast, I would GREATLY appreciate it!! It's painful on both sides of my abdomen (like to the point I'm doubled over and using a hot water bottle in addition to medicine) and I'm really nauseous (the thought or smell of food is 🤢).

      Just wondering if any of the Type 2 Diabetics also have there blood glucose go high when having only a Premier Protein drink for breakfast?  How does Premier Protein compare to BOOST Glucose Control in your experience?
