Last Night's Dinner



Recommended Posts

Well I was out with an old girlfriend last night. As most of you know I am a closet bandster. Anyhow we had much to catch up on and all she wanted to hear about was Vegas. So I proceeded to tell & share. dinner came & she asked ? after ?. Leaving me very little time to even have one bite of fish. We were on a time schedual to catch the next movie(red eye)so time was important.

She said"I haven't given time to eat anything with all my ??'s please eat." I say "its ok really" She says "nonsences at least have two bites."

The next 2 minutes were fine. Where was the tarta sauce when you need it? But of course there is none at a fancy restaraunt. Well the third bite put me over the edge & than I could feel it coming back a instant THROW UP.

I quickly grabbed my napkin & said" Isn't that the guy we knew from MSU?"& I pointed to the right. Than I turned to the left & heaved into my napkin. GROSS GROSS GROSS. Thank Goddness she didn't seem aware of my ordeal or the two napkins I quickly placed "loaded" to the side.

I instantly said "oh I must be mistaken" & excused myself to the bathroom. About 15 mins passed while the line up of women increased outside the one stall bathroom. I pulled myself together & got the courage to leave the stall & return to my friend.

Than she says" You barely touched your $9.00 glass of wine. You can't waste that!" I say " you drink it-lol" She takes a sip & says"ok now the rest is yours."

I am just about to tell her I can't & than thank GOD I let out this long aching belch proceeded by many "excuse me's & Thank God's " A few more quickly come & are smuffled by the chatter from the tables near by. Down the hatch the wine went & off to enjoy a pleasant movie.

My secret still intact. ;0) Whew! Close one.

Lesson Learned- no more fish unless covered in sauce & cheaper wine that can be wasted if needed-LOL LOL LOL :0)

Wow, close one Christina!! You are quick, I would never have thought of anything to say. I probably would have spilled the beans! I don't eat any kind of fish but that's because I don't like it!! YUCK! :)

What movie did you see and how was it?

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
