Default Off the Wagon....and Back On!

My husbands family came and stayed with us this week. They are very unhealthy eaters- only eat beef and pork for dinner, doughnuts for breakfast, chips and ice cream for snacks, and I wanted to make sure we had what they liked in the house. This was a BAD idea for me!

Since I don't have this stuff in the house it hasn't been an issue....but after 3 days with Krispy Kremes staring me in the face I finally broke and ate one yesterday (okay, 2 over the course of the day).

Not to mention they wanted to go out to eat every day at places that were hard for me. It was a challenging week with food to say the least (they don't know I had surgery). For the most part I did pretty good- but what I really slacked on was I did not drink enough and did not get in any protein supplements!

Today I am back on track! I threw out all the snack foods they left, I am currently sipping a protein shake, and I plan on getting in a lot of water. It amazed me how 1 week of visitors could COMPLETELY throw me off my routine of food, fluids, and protein. Thankfully, they only stay with us every 3-5 years, so hopefully I can keep it in check until then! Oh, and of course, big surprise, I haven't lost weight all week!

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.

Crap happens - that kind of situation is hard - I know I would have done NO better. But on a positive note...you didn't gain. How much would you have eaten and how much would you have gained normally when they came out???

I know you said they weren't told you had surgery, but they must have complimented you on your weight loss, No??? Cause you are doing great there!

Oh yes- I was NOT prepared for the Memorial Day party we went to. People kept commenting on how I looked and asked me what I did. When I would say I was eating less and more healthy, they wouldn't drop it- but dug for details! AHHHHHHHHHH I was not looking to go on and on about myself! My brother in law spent the evening reminding everyone how he liked me long before my husband (his brother) ever did- and that I must be "saving the best for last." It was a little funny and uncomfortable at the same time! I just didn't expect to get that kind of attention and wasn't sure what to say to it all.

Glad you are back on track. I just got back from the beach. I was on a stall for 1 week before I left and have not lost anything the week I was gone. I thought I did well but when I sit and think....I didn't do well at all. I am getting back to my exercise routine and back on track today also!!! I need to get the weightloss started again! It is amazing to see how others eat and more scary to see how we can fall back so fast. The good thing is you caught yourself and we are very aware of the BAD foods. Just think....that was a way of life everyday b4 surgery!!! Doesn't sound like you dump...I don't really dump either and if I do...it is so quick that I didn't even realize I was dumping because everyone describes it as such and awful experience. I kinda wish things made me dump so I would permanently stay away!!!

KB That must have been a nightmare for me. I know when my Mom and sister was here they knew I had the surgery but kept watching me like a hawk to see what and if I was eating. My mom had comvinced my sister I was starving myself and my sister was amazed that I wasnt...lol...she kept commenting on how good it was to see me eating like a normal person just in smaller quantities. Anywasy congrats on getting back on the wagon

You are not alone. This weekend Dunkin Donuts kept me company and I haven't exercised in 5 days. Tomorrow is going to be brutal with my trainer to say the least. I am amzed at how my body reacted to all the crap I was putting in my body. I had mood swings, massive headaches,and felt sluggish. I got back on track so now my body feels great. I'll get an extra butt kicking form my trainer for ya LOL Maybe the effects of my workout will be felt you hahaha

At least you know that it wasn't a good thing to do and got rid of everything. Your back on track already, so this was just a hiccup!
I hate it that evrybody watches me eat. It makes me very self conscious that I should or shouldn't be eating this or that.
I went to a family party this weekend and only my BIL and SIL said something to me (the rest of the family had seen me the day before) which was good because I hate being the center of attention, but at the same time I guess I expected more - I mean I'm almost 100lbs down in 5 months!
