Feeling like a huge fat failure...

Leaving food on my plate is still very hard for me.  I hate wasting food.  And I always serve myself too much.  And even then I think it won't be enough.

I just tell myself that if it isn't enough then I can always get more.  I rarely if ever do.

I also have learned that forcing myself to finish something can have painful consequences.  I know that one more bite will hurt big time.  What I do is either toss the food (god I hate doing that) or put it in a container for leftovers if there is enough left for another meal or give the rest to my dogs, who are now obese themselves since I had surgery.  Those poor guys get so excited when they see me get food knowing that more likely then not they will be sharing with me.

Usually meat that I can't finish.  My little girl was a little over 4 lbs when I had my surgery.  She is now around 9 lbs.  I wonder if they have WLS for dogs?  She would be a good candidate.

Just because I can doesn't mean I should and no one is coming to save me....my daily mantras....
