My weight today is 260! Its exciting because I am on my way to the 250's and I haven't been there consistantly since the late 90's. My weight has mainly been in the 260's and 270's for the last 10 years.
I started soft foods today. I mentally had in my mind what I wanted to eat and was pretty excited about it. I questioned why I had such excitement about food. Then I pulled back because I realized that my mind was still in addiction mode. My excitement turned into ambivolence because I DO NOT want to get hung up on the joy of eating fattening foods that will pile the weight back on. Retraining the mind is diffcult but I am willing to work on it. People overcome addictions everyday. I plan to go to my first bariatric support group tomorrow night to get more insight.
I have taken it easy with my food choices. My goal is to pile on the protein and so far I have been successful. I've eatten some yougurt, 1egg, and pureed corn chowder soup today.I have consumed 27 gram of protein so far. I need about 23 more grams. Will I get it today? I doubt it. I am very happy that I am taking my time and eating slow. I have been getting full and stayings satisfied for about 3-4 hours at time. I am consuming about 3 ounces of food at one setting. I am so grateful for the lapband!
