It's all about self awareness. About realizing what helped lead me here in the first place, and last night it dawned on me!

In order to lose weight after I'm banded I need to realize what my true vice is! ICE CREAM! I wish it was something solid like cake, or something else that isn't liquid that will go right through the band! I eat ice cream almost every night, and it is my most favorite thing. Curse that Schwann's delivery truck that brings it right to my door! They have the best ice cream in the world, and I don't know how I am going to change that after I have the surgery. It is such a part of my daily routine, and I just love it so much. I guess that is something I am going to have to will away, and ask myself what I want more?

A healthy lifestyle, and a thinner body? Or the temporary satisfaction of the enemy?

Maybe Schwann's makes a low-fat enemy!
