Officially A Vacation Day! Post-Op Day 34

wt: 207.4 (minus 24.8 ~ oh so close!)

First day of my vacation. We will hit the road in the morning! I have to admit to being a little off track with a few bites of things last night. (One of the success tips I read and blogged says to admit when you messed up so here I am doing just that). I had a spoonful of ice cream. And later on a couple of handfuls of popcorn. I wasn't hungry (I should only eat when hungry) it was all a mind thing, a craving struggle and I lost the battle a wee little but nothing major. Before my gizmo it would have been a major loss for me. My mind would have clicked and said why not continue with eating whatever cuz you already blew it stupid! So there's my confession in a nutshell. Moving on as I'm over it! ;-)

We will be packing some gizmo friendly foods to take on the trip. I have 6 lunchables meat and cheese packs ~ geez that's 6 whole meals for me ~ not a snack ~ that just seems so weird to me. When I think of how I use to eat and know how I eat now it just blows me away! I am packing my 1/2C and 1/4C measuring cups as I am paranoid of eating more than 3/4C of food @ any one meal. (I'm probable a little overboard with my gizmo especially since I haven't had my first fill yet but that's me!) I will pack some high protein bars as well along with my journal cuz I have to keep track of everything....again a mind game I'm sure. It's like if I don't write it down I didn't eat it?! (it's my secret sin ya know, like the Lord doesn't know anything about that food I over ate on or like it doesn't show on my obese body!)
