So i've had a few weeks "off" the tablets whilst recovering from my op, Now that I have stopped taking all the other drugs to go with the recovery I can get back onto my Xenical.
My Mind is telling me now to wait till after Christmas but my Heart is telling me to just get back onto it or I wont and the motivation will totally disappear.
I dont eat an obscene amount at Christmas anyway, I can't eat Mince Pies because they usually have Dairy or Citrus products in them, I can't eat Pork, so no bacon buttys or pigs in blankets with my Xmas dinner, I can't eat Cheese apart from a tiny amount of Feta now and again if its made with Ewe Milk, I can't eat Chocolate Cake, Most crisps and nuts have Citric Acid added to them......I could go on for a while listing all the things I can't have!
Also tommorow is a very big day for me, not in a good way at all. Its 10 years tommorow since my Mum died :cry:, I struggle every year on the 1st of December, and I always turn to food as comfort. I'm also due on, so double the hormones and emotions!
Tommorow I want it to be different, I want it to be the day that I start Xenical again and never look back, I want it to be the day I proved to my Mum that I CAN do this, I can become fit and healthy and I will be around as a parent to my daughter longer than she was for me.
I just have to remind myself of this mental attitude in the morning when i'm ready to eat a box of biscuits for breakfast....
