first six months: carbohydrate regrets

[Guest guest]

For those of you who have regrets about the way you ate during the

first six months after surgery:

Why? What were you eating? A few carbs at every meal to make the

protein go down? Sweets? A lot of them?

I'm reluctant to deny myself anything for fear that the urge to eat

it will build up, I'll become resentful, and then eat it (plus some)

anyway. Not only that, but I don't want my body to " overreact " in

six months or a year when I DO put sweets into it. I eat some kind

of simple carbs everyday: half a piece of (not whole wheat) toast,

two Hershey's kisses, three bites of pasta, etc. Not a lot, but some.

The mantra in my head is " eat whatever you want, just make sure you

get your water and protein in first. " What do you think?

Best,
