I'm back on track and off the sugar...also, have entered therapy in hopes of having sleeve surgery in 6 mos. One of the conditions my therapist set fourth in order to approve it was that I am to eat like I would post surgically for the next 6 mos.

I won't lie, it sounds daunting. So far, so good. I am down 4 pounds since Thursday, when I started.

It's really interesting what we (as Americans) think a normal portion is. This morning I was making an omelet w/ 2 turkey sausage links, 1 egg, mushrooms, red onion, spinach, and 1 slice of muenster cheese. After just these few days, when I looked at that portion, I had to cut it in half.

I consider that a small victory.

I hope everyone is well.
