For Everyone 2 See


First off, I want to send a shout out to Kristen to tell her how thankful I am for our new friendship! She gave me a great idea to add a little bit of fruit into my diet to just help with the head hunger

Second, I need to be held accountable. This is going to be a short blog. All I want to do is jot down what I plan to eat/drink today and come back tomorrow and give a good report that I actually stuck with it! So here is the plan...

3 protein shakes 720 calories (combined)
3 servings of fruit 300 (approx.)

10+ glasses of water


Sounds easy enough, let's give it a go!

Head Hunger

"Everyone has a weakness.
If your weakness is food,
you just happen to wear it for
the whole world to see."


Holy cow how true is that? I heard someone say some rendition of that and the quote is really my interpretation of it. That just hit me in the face when I heard it. I wanted to share it all with you in hopes that you it might inspire you to get control of your eating habit. It definitely did that for me!

It's been a few days since I have blogged, and the truth is, I've been trying to avoid it. I wanted so badly to start this full on liquid diet until my surgery....I do so well all day long and then when I get home from work at 8:30, I end up eating supper. I am struggling so much with my head hunger.

Luckily, I am very fortunate to have many friends at lapbandtalk who are so supportive and encouraging. Some say I am too hard on myself. I love you guys! Today I was watching this show called "I Lost It" it is on Discovery Health, and I could just relate to so many stories. You guys should really check it out, it will make you feel like you aren't alone in this battle against the bulge! So from now on I am going to try and take this liquid diet one day at a time. Being overweight is about not being in control of what you eat, even though I want to be in control I have felt like that is not possible, but you know what, it is! I'm taking control - move over head hunger lol.
