I'm hoping my couple days of "self sabotage" will end today. Don't know why I do this to myself. You would think after hearing a doctor tell me that gallbladder attacks can be life threatening and that if I want to avoid surgery or further attacks I need to eat a non fat or very low fat diet that it would be motivating to do that. Instead, I go and get tacos for me and the lady who was cleaning my house for lunch. And then, before she finished cleaning I go back to the grocery store and buy oatmeal cookies and ice cream - everything high in fat. But I got through this without any gallbladder "attacks" and hope I can just move on. Met with friends for lunch yesterday and I ignored the tempting items on the menu and as planned, ordered the vegan lentil soup and a small Caesars salad. I'm not sure about how much fat is in the salad, what came up on the food diary seems high. I doubt there was more than 2 tablespoons of dressing the salad. Eating the lentil soup made me think this must be what "eating to live" is like, instead of living to eat. It's not something I would ever crave. It wasn't bad, and probably healthy but that's the only reason I ate it. But I would probably order it again if I end up at the same restaurant for lunch. Maybe I could learn to like it.

There are many delicious low-fat foods out there, I hope you can find some that you enjoy.

thanks Shirfleur - I am usually fine eating low fat. I've been drinking only skim milk for over 30 years and always buy the reduced fat mayonnaise and cream cheese. I make a veggie stew but even chicken stew or soup is very low fat. I think it's because the doctor told me I NEED to eat low fat that caused me to suddenly want very high fat foods!

LOL! Yes, I tend to be contrary like that also. Take good care of yourself. 🌈

I'm a rebel, too. I hate doing what someone tells me to do. (Only with diets. Otherwise I'm kind of a rule follower in real life) I definitely self sabotage.

I hope you are doing ok. It has got to be so hard... We all make choices that frustrate our goals... Well at least I do, and when you have this big health challenge it is really tough. Hang in there, Fritzy. ❤️

You can live to eat the "good stuff" by retraining your brain. Cravings are based on different things, including memories of childhood, migraine response addiction, knowing that it's "bad" for you, wanting to do what you want to do no matter what it is really causing in your body - all kinds of things make us rebel against doing the healthy thing. Habit is a huge factor. Learning to like something can be done. Good luck, it is a constant struggle I know!

one thing I realized is how easily my brain and taste buds are tricked by healthy substitutions after just a couple of meals.
