Well I had my first week where I didnt eat so healthy and lost 3 lbs!
Ate out three meals and it wasnt worth it. My hubby doesnt care about food and spent a week seeing every meal I ate. I drank milkshakes (with sf ice cream) and bought some sf mints and pecan clusters. I wasnt sure I wouldnt enhale the bags of candy (7 pieces) but my trusty band said one piece is enough . I worked out in the exercise room and exercised in the pool. So vacation is still good even without food.

I feel so in control. I feel like I am beating my food addiction. I feel full so I dont have my craving to eat junk food. Its kind of neat because my intake is so small I want to have good healthy choices.
A friend didnt understand why I hadnt gone out to eat since banding. She is skinny . So I feel she is sort of right. When we go on vacation I am going to make a point to enjoy the doing the restaurant thing. I have enjoyed having a big dinner twice with family. I ate a small amount....

My scale said 214 today. I have increased my time at the gym to 1 1/2 hours. I am getting addicted to exercise. I guess that really isnt a problem. In the back on my mind I wonder will I keep it up.
I was able to eat mushies yesterday and even a whole banana today.
Food intake much better.
200 here I come!:p

water exercised for 1 hour 15 minutes
2 30 minutes walks (beautiful day)
Had a good food choice day too
scales this morning 216!

Now Im starting to think about once I get to goal , how the hell am I going to keep it off?
Will I start buying cookies and lie to myself and say I'll only eat one a day?
Will I ever be able to have anything really mouth watering in my house again Damn it.
I have had to cut myself off from sf pudding because I was so weak...
