Default I am so very, VERY ashamed of myself.

I have been on my gastric lifestyle change since 3/7/07. I have lost 24 pounds on it, by eating 1 1/2 - 2 cups food 3 x day and 1 or maybe 2 healthy snacks inbetween.

I have learned many things and one of those things is: I can't go to a buffet line or office dinner!

I have done so good this month and today was our Easter Dinner at work. I went through the line like I have never saw food before in my life! I understand a gastric patient is not able to have a splurge like the one I dove into today, however, I am not a gastric patient.

I am fearful that my tummy that had shrunk so much, is all stretched back out something awful. I am fearful, I put all the 24 pounds back on today!

I am not eating supper tonight, I have to skip in order to make today not so bad. I started off with just one trip and that is where I messed up....I gave myself seconds. I worked so hard this entire month and today I blew it all and had seconds. Maybe my guilt from this will keep me from doing this ever again. I feel as if I have let myself down and that is worse than someone else letting me down.

My biggest fear of all is that everything I have worked for this month is down the drain and I am beginning to question myself and my will power.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Don't beat yourself up Linda, pick yourself up and start again. We all have ups and downs just remember this feeling next time and you won't make the same mistake.

Your preaching to the choir here. We all have had our moments, believe me. I have been having a tough time for the last week.
The main thing is to get back on the track. You have had many years of poor eating habits that will come back to haunt now and again. We are all human and make mistakes. Like Friendly said, brush yourself off and get back on track. Please don't beat yourself up and remember all that you have gone through to get to where you are today. You can do it!

Did you say something???? Nope dont hear anything.... Past is past...

Everyday is a new day. We all have those moments, the defining factor is how we handle it. Do we beat ourselves up and have the snowball effect or do we put the past in the past and start a new day??

Its over and done with. A learning experience. We have to fail in order to succeed.

Your doing a great job. Keep up the good work.

Default Thank you all so much

Thank you all for your support and friendship.

I truely felt horrible and sick about myself.

In the mean time, I bought me a new shirt that I could fit at Wal-mart. IT has been years since I bought me a shirt there! I am happy again.

A new incentive to get back on track.

Yup. Take it one day at a time. You've done good for 30 days, so what's a slip up for one day.
As everyone says, the most important thing is to let go of your bad day, and pile up your good days.
Don't skip meals for the ones you hogged on, just go back to your regular eating. That is enough.
Keep in mind, one day of bad eating won't mess you up, but swinging from one end to the other--hogging, then starving--will mess you up.
If you've gone to one extreme, then the thing is to get back in center.
You're doing fine, and you'll slip from time to time.
The key to success is to not pick your bad days apart, and let it hurt you, but to pick up your good days, and pat yourself on your back for doing as well as you've been so far.

You do have a strong will power, you know, it isn't easy to keep doing what you've been doing for one month.
((((((((HUGS))))))) Your journey is sure to go well with your determination.

Linda even those who have had the surgery have their moments of weakness. Like last night I took the kids to a Mexican restuarant and ate so many stupid chips and salsa I couldn't eat my fajiata (spelling) but of course chips don't keep you full very long so came home and ate some strawberries. I knew I shouldn't have ate the chips because those are my weakness but I told myself just one or two and stop.. but could I ohhhh no ate till I was full!! So you see my dear we all do stupid things just got to make the new day a new day!!
