Hmmmm

Pool is still not got any further which is SERIOUSLY annoying me. It is such awful weather here at the moment. I woke up this morning to another 2 inches of rain in the bottom of it. Yesterday I baled out an inch of water too. I really think I am going to have to lift the tiles and re lay them because the grout is never going to dry at this rate.

I just hope it will be OK. This thing is if the bead on the bottom of the tile is disturbed, then it means the pressure wont be even and they could all end up cracked which would just do my head in. I SO don't want to have to do this again. I am beginning to think that a pool liner might be a very VERY good idea right now. It will certainly save all this stress! It could be done by now!

Anyway, food wise... again no problems with my band. I made myself a 2 egg omelet this morning with tomato, mushrooms and onion and 28g cheese. It was about 11:30 so I didn't bother with lunch at all.

This evening I had mashed potato, 1.5 beef burgers and 2 sausages cooked in the oven so no extra fat.
So calories:
I wont bother counting the tomato, onion and mushroom as that's like next to nothing... but

2 eggs are about 200cals
a helping of mashed potato is 250
1.5 beef burger is 243
2 sausages are 331

I then had a heap of strawberries which again aren't much with some cream 200 cals

so today I have had about 1500 cals if you include all the drops of milk in my coffee and the strawberries and tomato and stuff.

I am not really worried. this is still WAY under the calories of what I used to eat but I really don't think I should be able to eat this much...

I would really like someone who reads this blog and has maybe lost a lot of weight and is really in the zone to tell me the kind of amount they are eating. I don't think that after eating burger, sausage and mash I should still feel like I could a) eat more and b.) be able to follow it with a bowl of strawberries.

I know I am making the choices and I could have chosen to have milk on my strawberries or nothing at all, but I figure normal people would not think twice about it. Before banding I would have eaten a lot more that 1 and a half burgers and 2 sausages. I also didn't have as much potato as I would have, so I know that something is working. Like I said, I could have also chosen to eat a salad and raw veg instead of what we had, but I chose to have this. They were real meat not some cheap and nasty grizzle burgers too. I feel full and content now as well, so I wont be having anything else.

I always fell like I have to justify myself. I make the choices and I am conscious of them, but I wish someone else could make the choices for me. I wish I could tell my cook to prepare me nutritious macrobiotic oojimi-flips but I cant.

So tomorrow we get another delivery of farm foods. I am so glad about that. I have slim fast ready and waiting in the cupboard and also some ready prepared ones too, just in case, and then I have my healthy meal for the evening all ready prepared for me an waiting.

I am really going to go for it, and considering I am also having a fill on Saturday, cant help but think that slim fast will be quite easy compared to pre banding. I am going for it anyway. I thought Dr. Clayson was a bit of a div for saying just go and live a normal life. I don't need anyone telling me that. I need to be told to watch it big style.

Anyway,
about to put some things on eBay and earn some spare cash to pay for my fill at the weekend! HA HA
