On Wednesday February 18th, 2009 my life changed for ever. I chose Gastric Bypass to help save my own life. Now, three years and five months later it's becoming harder to maintain the "Mindful Eating" habits that I've since learned. My motivation to exercise and eat right is lacking big time. It seems to me to be the same laundry list of bad habits. Lack of structure in my daily habits, poor food choices, eating at night, and on, and on, and on. So why am I posting? Since post #1, I chose to do this through good times and not so good times. This is one of those not so good times. Structure is very important. My short term goal is to add some structure to my day starting with more exercise and better food choices. Exercise has so many benefits and I have to remember that. Good food choices do as well. Exercise helps mentally and physically by raising your endorphin levels. The better I feel, the more I do. Sugar kills me. Although I'm still in my goal range at 185 lbs I feel like a 321 lb lump of nothing after last nights peanut butter and pretzels at 1:00 AM. Tomorrow I'm headed to Sunapee NH with family. I love walking the Berkhaven loop. It's quite a workout. So let's see where a couple of days of sunshine and exercise take me. I'll let you know.
