Yeeeuuuuccckkkkkk

Okay, I kinda need to get ahold of myself.

I can feel myself headed toward some pretty poor habits. The past couple of days I've had some convenience/restaurant foods, and I think as a result I'm eating more. There's just something still so odd about ordering something and not finishing it.

Today in point, I stopped by Taco Bell for mushyfood. I had some cheesy potatoes and their pintos and cheese. I ate all of the potatoes and most of the pintos (although the portions aren't huge for either, they are probably slightly more than I should be eating!) and I felt rather ill afterwards. First, the pintos are nothing but a sodium BOMB. I have never had anything so salty in my whole life. It was really disgusting. The potatoes were okay, but probably didn't have a whole lot in it that I should be eating.

For dinner tonight I heated up some frozen spinach souffle. It's pretty good stuff, but again, I realize that it has a whole lotta sodium. I ended up eating a little more than half of it (!!!!!!) and put aside a small portion for lunch. This is not good.

I need to take a step back and get into the right foodstuffs. I think tomorrow I may ply myself with a thermos filled with herbal tea and all protein shakes. It will be a bit of a detox from my (slight) overindulgences.

That's what's tricky about the (lap) band: there's still a lot of room to sabotage your weight loss.
