Life just keeps getting better and better.

[mature]

I have an umbilical hernia, surgery will be necessary. Also, my blood pressure is 180, I'm 60 pounds heavier than I thought I was, and these combined with the fact that diabetes runs in my family has me thinking this is the time to make that diet change.

So my resolution for the year?

Live to see 2013.

HUGE HUGS

I'm glad it's something they can fix, anyway!! :|

Let me know if you need to vent or anything. I know you can do it, because you are a badass!

*big hugs* I've had to make similar changes, hon; it's rough but it can be done. A big, big thing that will help is learning foods and condiments/spices that give you flavors you like without high levels of fat/sugar/sodium. Cucumbers, tomatoes, romaine lettuce are all really tasty plain; lemon juice works well flavor-wise in place of salt many places; white cheddar rice cakes are surprisingly tasty. There are good recipes out there for black bean burgers that aren't that hard to make and give good solid protein without a high calorie cost. Catch me on IM some night and I can pass on more annoying helpful advice. *hugs*
