And the Answer is....

A friend of my posted this on Facebook a few days ago.  I have seen this on line for a few months now, and a few months ago, my answer would have been none of the above.  But that has changed over the last few months as I have been trying to eat healthier. 

1. Tacos:  As you know if you have read this blog, I did have a few fish tacos while I was on vacation.  Taco bell was one of my main stops, because I could get a lot of food for close to nothing.  Since I have started to eat healthier, no Taco Bell.  So tacos, are a maybe when I am on vacation, and only fish tacos.

 2. Pizza.  Pizza has become one of those things that we get most of the time as a pizza bowl.  Meat, Cheese, and sauce.  It is one of those items that I eat when, again, I am not at home.  And my limit now is two pieces, not  half or the whole thing. 

 3.  Hamburger:  Now this is something that I have not cut out at all, except the bums.  

 4.  Fries:  This is something that I have really given up.  I had one fry when we stopped at In & Out in Palm Springs.  But I really have not had any fries for 3 months.  

 So the Answer is number 4, the fries.  And to tell you the truth, I have not missed them.  And there really has not been any slipping backwards.  Basically, I have learned to take away the bad stuff or really eat it in moderation.  It really is about making the smart choices.

Weekly Update: Jan 6

Happy New Year!!!  And with the start of the New Year, I can say I am some what starting my journey to a new me.  This week was a lot of first.  I left my girlfriends home and finally went back to mine.  With that being said, I went back to work on the 2nd. It was weird being back.  But as soon as I walked in, everyone could notice the change.  I had a little pain, because of the belt I was wearing, but that is because for 2 weeks I wore gym shorts. I am lucky that my job offers voluntary time off, so my first day back was just a few hours.  But I am back to working full time again.    Being back at my place, I have to find the schedule to eat my food and drink my water.  With the surgery I have to stop drinking water about 15 to 30 minutes be eating, then take 30 minutes to eat and then wait 30 minutes after that to take a drink. This is so the new stomach can digest the food.  This is the hardest to so at work, because I...

Is it worth it?

This week has been a very emotional one for me.  I've had highs and lows.  I'm wondering if I am making the right decisions.  Am I making the right choices?   Is all the hard work that I have done really worth it?  Is it worth the compromises I will have to go through? For about ten years, I have had doctors and family members trying to get me to do "the surgery".  My girlfriend has been talking to me about this for a year.  It was not until I went to the weight loss class that I decided to do this.  I started doing the hard work months before even going to the class and seeing the doctor.  Now that I am going through the process, some doubts are creeping in... Am I cheating the process if I do the surgery?  I've already lost a lot of weight by myself.    If I do the surgery, is writing this blog really worth it?  And is this the lifestyle change that I want to make?  I've done so well on my eating and ...
