[quote=Anonymous]This is OP.  I appreciate all the responses.  Even the harsh ones are a nice reality check as I am an eternal optimist and think oh no, a heart attack won’t happen to me.  I keep the visualization of the crap food clogging my arteries whenever I am tempted and that’s been working.

I’m already doing better.  I haven’t had fast food this week.  I was tempted today on my way home from work as I was starving and wanted something fast before my book club.  But I ate an apple in the car.  Then at home I ate Ezekiel bread with avocado mash and a banana.  Which is a big step for me, and I think the Ezekiel bread is okay if I toast it.  I have been very hungry lately now that I am not constantly binging sweets, so that has been an adjustment.

One of the book club members is a dietician so she helped me with some ideas tonight.  And we looked at sodium in the Wendy’s salad vs the Perdue shortcuts vs Trader Joe’s refrigerated grilled chicken.

I have to keep the momentum and keep going to the grocery store and buying the healthy food.  My kids eat with my MIL several evenings when I work late,  then we go to my mom’s for dinner one night and dinner at our neighbor’s house another night, and then out to eat the rest of the time, so except for breakfast stuff and fruit I haven’t done my grocery shopping.

My next project is figuring what I can cook as I never cook.  Or a meal service.  [/quote]
