Well my weight loss has stalled lately. Very sad day! However I am not going to be too sad because I have still lost 130 lbs since January of this year! That is really saying something! My problem is the snacks! I must not snack, I must not snack, I must not snack. For some reason in my mind I think that I can control it, but alas, I can not. Therefore I can not buy them. I have not been out long enough to be able to control the cravings and snacks. I have been letting soda in occasionally using my headaches and need for caffeine as an excuse. So I am once again banning soda. All soda...FOREVER! I have also been letting chips back in which also must stop IMMEDIATELY! No more! As of right this minute I am getting back on track! My shopping experience today made me realize how much I am enjoying my weight loss and if I keep on this track of snacking and excuses I won't ever get to my goal weight. So I need EVERYONES support! Help me not to snack. Help me to find something better than soda to drink when I am craving something of the sort. I have those MIO drink things so why am I not using them? Good question...I will let you know when I figure it out. But none the less I need support and encouragement. I see other WLS patients snacking and for some reason it leads me to believe that I can snack too...but I just can't. I deserve to get to my goal weight. I have worked far too hard to give up now!
On a side note.....
My shopping experience for scrubs today was incredible. In the six months since surgery I went from a 5XL to a XL!!! How freaking amazing is that? I am still having a hard time wrapping my head around it.
La Croix sparkling water is my new addiction. It may help with the soda because its carbonated. You can buy it at the grocery store and by the case at Costco for under $6 a case.
