And I would agree with THEM Look at reality okay? Compare what you ate that day vs. what you would have eaten on a "normal" day pre-op. Judging by what you listed for your food intake that day, I would imagine there is a world of difference right? Focus on THAT, and the overall amount of calories you consume in a one week period okay?

I hate to read of beating oneself up, because it perpetuates the vicious cycle we learned when we were obese. At least that's what I've observed. It's a choice now honey...rethink you're self-flagellation okay?
