After giving myself a proper telling off its back on track!

Hello Crystal
your right after thinking it over maybe I will go back but take something with me ,I just wasn't thinking that the group would spend soo much time talking about food!
looking back I had very little to eat before going no time for a quick bite before setting foot in the session and arrived late because I couldn't find the damn room so I was not in a great place when I finally sat down all that PLUS talking about food gave my head demons room to grow
I see that now. had a couple of good days since and will plan better for next time im not really fully into the mindfulness jargon but I understand the meanings behind it ,it felt very "amercian" if you understand what I mean im too british for that get up! ,good luck to those who get more from it

last night off before getting my face back to the grind stone the good thing about work is that it puts back in place a routine of breakfast lunch and dinner with no snacking in between unlike this pass week when ive been picking at food

Just be careful of your carb portions they seem to be creeping up a bit. Instead of 2bagels or rolls for breakfast what about 1 roll and some fruit x

2x bagels coffee milk 1x half sooon sugar

surprised myself in a good way as I just couldn't finish my lunch and only had a light evening meal and no snacking later in the evening !

Your right dream
I think even thou im pre op I have the mindset of
eat like a king at breakfast
lunch like a prince
dine like a pauper
when ive had lighter breakfasts ive not been hungry at all I guess its because I brought some bagels and didnt want to waste them but I do have loads of quick porridge, cornflakes and wheat a bix laying about!
Will try to do better .....maybe I will have the porride for a change.....plus no more bagels , all gone !

 

[cupid1964]

You're not on your own Hun I used to love bagels but had to ditch them, trying my best to ditch carbs and finding it hard for replacement as there is just too much I don't like. I also ditched chips coz I always wanted white bread but now white bread makes me feel ill. I have only been following you a short while but you really seem to be getting to grips with food now Hun well done
