Parker's Pad

I did really well yesterday - even though I was discouraged because my Wii Fit Plus says I have gained 2.5lbs - I ended the day with 1600 calories consumed.

I started with a smoothie at 0630, then an omelet (w/egg substitute, cheese and baby Bella mushrooms) at 0900, then a snack at 1200 of an apple, some chocolate milk, and 1/2 of a regular sized bag of M&Ms, then another snack at 1500 of a bag of popcorn, and at the last minute, I decided on another omelet with smoked sausage instead of pasta and smoked sausage for dinner at 1930 - I went to bed a few hours after that.

This morning I skipped the smoothie and just went straight to the omelet (w/egg substitute, cheese, baby Bella mushrooms, and green peppers) and 1/2 of an apple for breakfast. I may have a smoothie later as a snack.

I bought some DumDum suckers (20 calories each) because it helps me to not eat if I am chewing (sugarless) gum or sucking on a sucker -- I just need to be mindful of the calories and sugar in the suckers and not eat a ton of them back-to-back each day or it will defeat the purpose! lol

I have an appointment at the VA on Friday with the Endocrine docs - they handle all bariatric surgery consults - to discuss my weight and the possibility of bariatric surgery. I may bring in a copy of my food diary to show them what I have been doing to change my eating habits - but also, I will get to see what the VA scales have to say this week.
