I made myself some mashed sweet potato and had it with 60 g of tuna for dinner last night. Four forkfuls later and nothing would else would go down, not a pleasant experience. I got through my first pb'ing episode after after a bit of trial and error. I thought a bit of water would help and it just made things worse. I've learned my lesson, I was trying to eat way too quickly and not chewing enough -- a guaranteed recipe for disaster. After I got the offending bits up (sorry if TMI) I was able to enjoy the rest of my meal albeit at a much slower pace with smaller amounts at a time.
I had an SV this morning! I'm following a similar weigh-in routine to Catherine and Cara and I am now in the 260's. I've reached my second goal, yay me! Still a long way to go, but heading in the right direction.
I was planning to check out some treadmills while M is at work, but it's minus 18 degrees celcius here in Toronto (about 1 Farenheit) and I'm not looking foward to facing the cold. It's still early so hoping it will warm up a few degrees.
Enjoy the weekend everyone!
OH- I'm sorry about the bad experience! Thanks for the lovely comments on my blog, we all have a lot of learning to do to 'master' the band experience. One day at a time, right?
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your 'SV!'

Ouch. PB'ing at the best of times is not fun. Glad you worked your way through it - and yeah, doesn't water just make it worse? It seems to sit on top and make things back up even more.
ReplyDeleteI think Catherine and I are onto something - it's a more relaxed approach - but we all get there in the end. Congrats on how well you are doing so far. Nice SV too!

WHere are you at? Hope you're doing OK!! Journaling really helps, so come on here and write your heart out if you need to-- no judgments!
