What a beautiful day in the neighborhood!!
Hey Ya'll,
I don't know how it was in your neck of the woods today, but here, it was a perfect day!! Not to cool or too warm.
We were invited to our friends home for their daughter Teagan's, 5th Birthday party. They had a really nice gathering of mostly family, with a couple of friends. They will have another party a bit later for Teagan's friends. Food wise, I did fairly well there today. I only had a spoon of Chili, a spoon of Macaroni & Cheese and a spoon of fresh Strawberry's. I know, I know, I shouldn't have had the Macaroni & Cheese, but it looked so good! Then, to make matters worse, I also allowed myself one Cupcake. And it was really good too!!
Oh well. I did not have this Lap Band Surgery for a fast weight loss. I am planning on eating normally, but trying to eat less, giving me a slower weight loss. If I can get up to about a pound a week, I would be at goal in about a year. Maybe some weeks I can lose two pounds, who knows? But I am not going to push for a fast weight loss. I don't intend to deprive myself of foods I love. Doing that has always got me into trouble, causing me to go on a feed binge.
Not much else happening right now. So, till next time.
Aloha My Friends :)

One spoonful of macaroni and cheese? Is it really possible to stop at one? Who knew. Good job keeping the eating in check.
Happy Four Months Debi - a couple days late, but I just remembered myself! I am glad you had a great weekend!
Thanks Bonnie and Tracy!!
Tracy, I didn't even think about it either until you said it!! I even have a Ticker Tape which shows my time line since Surgery!!
Happy 4 Months to you too!!
Hey don't beat yourself up over one spoonful of mac and cheese. As you said: take it slow and have it come off that way too. It's working for me! I think you're brilliant! xx
Thanks Cara!
Hey 1 cupcake and a sppon of M&C won't break the bank...your goals are very realistic
I agree with you about moderation. I don't believe that the lapband is supposed to be a diet. Skinny/Healthy people eat cupcakes too!! Just in moderation!
Just one spoon of macaroni & cheese? If you can stop at one, that little spoonful isn't likely to cause any damage when it comes to the scale. I'd say pat yourself on the back. :o)
Thanks guys! They even sent us home with 4 cupcakes, and I have resisted them!!
