I needed to let this out and realized this forum is the place to do so.

Like this thread title? Perhaps we can use it when we need to get something off our hearts and get encouragement as well.

I'll start......

I finally have the house to myself this weekend. DH and son went to in-laws and DD went to a friend's. So I celebrated last night by eating 1/2cup more of rice than I should followed by "2" slices of Mrs. Smith deep dish apple pie. It was truely emotional eating, knowing after the 7th, I won't be able to do it again. I will admit, since this was a "planned" meal, I did better than if it was spur of the moment. But, I STILL should have grabbed my First Place weight loss devotions for this week.

It's been a rough week and I haven't done them at all. I have no doubt if I'd had, I wouldn't of had this celebrating feast!!

I'm still home alone today, back on tract. I divided the rest of pie up in 3rds, licked the spoon, then gave my doggies a wonderful Breakfast treat.

God bless!!

This is a learning process you aren't going to be perfect all the time.

So throw the pie in the trash (it's not good for the doggies) and move forward.

I gained 5 lbs between my 1st visit and my pre-op - due to the last meal mentally - but you know what - you can still eat when you are banded

I now have a treat every now and then - it's budgeted into my calories bank for the day and now it's 1 small pie - not the whole pie.

Good Luck..
