I have to say, I'm really proud of myself. I've lost 3lbs since I last wrote (which was what? Tuesday?) I've been writing down everything I eat as well as how many calories are in each item. Right now I'm trying to stick to 1500 calories a day, until next Friday when I start my 10 day liquid diet.
The first day, I have to be honest, I felt like I was starving, all of the time. Yesterday, I really wasnt hungry at all, in fact, I only ate about 700 calories. Today, a bit of in between. I was craving Hershey Kisses and instead of smacking myself for even considering them, I had them. I counted out 9 kisses (suggested serving size) and I ate them slowly, and I have to say I enjoyed them a lot more I believe.
I did buy an anniversery cake for my husband and I, since our 2nd wedding anniversery is on Tuesday, and I plan to eat my share and not feel guilty, since it will be one of my last indulging guilty pleasures for awhile. (I'll come back and post a picture of it later)
I am so psyched for my surgery. It really is the only thing I think about, day in and day out. Which might be a little obsessive, especially since I cant stay off the scale. I've decided the weight I see about 2 hours after I wake up is the weight I stick with. I hate being scale obsessed, but its so amazing to see how much my weight changes throughout the day.
If I can stick to this losing a pound a day I'll be in good shape when surgery time comes. Keeping my thoughts positive and my head held high.
I know what you mean about scale obsessed. That is me so bad..I was banded Jan. 19th and things are going well. You'll do great!
