I am waiting for my ride to the surgery center. They are late. I thought I would give you a picture of Beka an Aaron the day they got engaged. He proposed to her after a race in Sugarland. He helped give out the awards table. Then he called her up to the table and she had no idea why since she had not run that day. In front of the entire crowd he propose to her with all their friends looking on. They both are runners and have made athletic events apart of their lives, so this was very cool. Aaron is an art teacher and photographer. Beka is an artist and getting her degree in teaching in art too ed. too.
I just got back from procedure. I feel a little groggy, but other wise am ok. A nurse saw my book I was reading ( Beck Diet Solution) and had me read some of it to her. She was trilled with it and said she would go out and get the book. The part I'm on is how thin people know when they are full. So in the recovery room I had a thin nurse and I asked her how she knew when she was full. She answered me by saying, " You know your portion control and how much you can eat, and then I drink a lot of water between meals to hold me over. I also eat a small protein snack like a boiled egg and piece of cheese, but not too big to hold me over till dinner. Spoken like a true thin person. She obviously doesn't have my problem. She lives like I want to live like. Like J. Beck noticed when she went out to eat with her friends in chapter three, those without a weight problem treated food totally differently. The thin person has learned when he is full and stops eating. The thin person knows when to quit and knows it's all right to get a little hungry between meals.That's what water is for.
Now, if my bg is legitimately down, let's say below 69, I do need to eat something to keep from having a low bg and getting myself in trouble. I know that, but sometimes I have used that as an excuse to eat because I have been afraid to let my bg get down low. This is something I am going to have to deal with along with learning I can wait longer periods of time between meals without eating. This is especially true after dinner when that urger to nibble is there.
