In January 2007, I weighed 420 lbs . In February 2009, I was down to 255 lbs and within 100 lbs of my goal weight. I couldn't get the scale to budge and gave up. By August 2015, I hit a personal high at 442 lbs. Now I'm on a renewed journey to health.

Leaving Food on the Plate

On Friday my husband and I went to Tulsa. For breakfast, I had my typical raisin bran and an orange. I ate a peanut butter sandwich right before we left (around 11 o'clock) because I planned to give blood and wanted to do it before lunch. (I feel sick if I give blood while I'm hungry).

After I gave blood, we went to Famous Dave's for lunch. I LOVE barbecue and Famous Dave's is one of my faves. My husband and I split an appetizer--the smoked crab spread--INCREDIBLE and then we split a two-meat entree. It was so much food! I can't believe I used to eat all of that food by myself, and I never really felt full!

Even though I only ate half, I still felt sick. Miserably sick. I so wish I could leave food on my plate, but it is so hard for me. I hate waste. Hate it. I'm in the process of reading Bethenny Frankel's "Naturally Thin." I hope she can help me leave food on my plate.
