"that girl"
A strange thing happened to me tonight. After a long day at work, I came home to a lovely dinner that my husband had made. Not only did he make chicken breast with an orange bourbon reduction but he plated it with barbequed peaches and a spinach pecan salad. The thing that was strange was that I didn't bat an eyelash at the small salad plate he so nicely arranged it on...in fact, I felt appreciative and loved his thoughtfulness. Very, very strange change in food attitude. It wasn't that long ago that a small plate of food for dinner after a long day with no lunch would be unheard of...my gosh...I suddenly realized that I really am changing. It's not just the physical changes and the numbers on the scale changing but it's really ME that's changing. My relationship with food is changing in a way that only a year ago I would have never dreamed possible. I am still in awe. Could this really be true. I think it is...I am becoming "that girl"... I am so grateful to have found this path. I feel like I am reclaiming my life.

What a great husband!!! And awesome NSV :)
What a thoughtful guy your husband is - and to plate it on a small plate specially for you - awesome!
OMG I can comment again.. YAY - I didn't expect it to go through - I have been trying to comment for ages. You must have missed us girls telling you that it wasn't working at one stage (I did too..) whooo.. back in business.
Can I have your hubby for a few days. That is wonderful NSV. Less stress. And we can now comment!
Congrats! That is awesome - sounds like you are in your green zone.
That's amazing!
That is so damn sweet! Oh...and I LOVE grilled peaches. I was just talkign about this the other day with a coworker. He asked me if I thought I would need the band forever. I said yes...probably so. Not that I feel like I would totally go back to all my bad habits, but bc it helps.
I eat healthier, cook healthier, etc...NOW...and not bc I have to but bc I want to. Thanks to the band.
so sweet!
the mind/food changes are absolutely amazing! sometimes I just shake my head! Finally the band gets me!
Yipee! Thank you for your comments...it was getting lonely around here.
Sandy Lee you made me laugh with your request to borrow my husband. I am sure he'd be happy to cook for you. You may wish to wait a bit as I just bought him the Everyday Italian cookbook by Giada (can't remember her last name but she's hot, and I figured it would inspire my husband to cook even more).
