Happy Turkey Day!

I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving and all that it holds for me and my family. I love food! This will be my last Thanksgiving without the band. Since I made the decision to have the lap band, I have been eating as though each meal is my last. I hate that about myself, but can't quite figure out how to stop it. I can't wait to have my surgery and to feel like I'm in control of food for a change, instead of the other way around. I know it won' t be easy, but I feel confident that this is the right decision for me. I spend so much energy doubting myself and picking myself apart. But today and tomorrow I'm going to spend my energy being thankful. I am thankful for so much, for my family, my career, my passion and my talents. And....I'm thankful that I'm getting banded baby!
