Being a former super morbidly obese person, that sense of control by CHOOSING not to eat something is a big thrill for me. Doesn't matter how tasty the food is at a planned splurge, I ALWAYS enjoy NOT splurging MORE. Very odd. I guess "those" foods just don't have the same allure for me that they used to.

and, despite my reduced stomach size (17 yr old surgery);
the extremely negative consequence of "dumping" (still a factor);
my calorie knowledge and daily food journal tracking;
and my intense desire to stay inside my Maintenance Weight Range,
each day is still a struggle for me.
