I do the same as you in regard to weighing each ingredient and then the total amount. My family has learned to not touch the food until I have weighed it - particularly on items like chili. They have gotten to the point of asking if they can start dishing up to make sure I've done my thing. What I do so they don't have to…

I understand. Weekends are harder for me because we usually aren't too busy and have lots of free time. The week days are easier because they are more structured. I find myself wanting to munch on the weekends because I'm watching TV and the old habits are still there. I try to keep my hands busy with crafts or something…

Here's another vote for a Yeti. I have the tumbler and the bottles and they never sweat and keep my ice water cold forever.

Been there. Have your gallbladder taken out and you won't get sick from fatty foods any more. But I agree, plan ahead as much as possible.

You will probably be able to eat most things in a couple days. Steak may not be your friend for a week or so, but you should be able to eat almost anything. I would suggest staying away from things that are very chewy. And don't use a straw to drink with.

The night brace/boot and shoes with good arch support took care of mine. The other thing that my podiatrist suggested that has helped is wearing shoes all the time. I have a pair of Brooks tennis shoes that are my "inside only" shoes.

It wasn't good. Went to a buffet for brunch and I tried to load up on fruit and salmon but some other not so good things ended up on my plate. Went to Captain America and didn't have anything there and then went for a walk. The day would have probably been salvageable if it wouldn't have been for my nephew's parents…

This was an excellent post! Thanks for sharing. I always say that life is about choices - I just needed to hear it again and now I need to follow what I also say.

On the weekends I'm usually up much earlier than the rest of the fam too so I totally get where you are coming from. Everyone is on their own for breakfast and lunch on the weekends and I make supper when I'm hungry because I've eaten at normal times. If they want to eat when I do, they can, otherwise they can warm it up…

I weigh myself everyday, but count Friday as my weigh in day, so whatever I weigh on Friday morning is what I enter into MFP.

If you are in the US, you could also check out Bountiful Basket for fresh fruits and vegetables. It's like a food coop - you contribute on Monday and then pick Friday or Saturday depending on your location. You don't know what you are going to get, but it's $15 + shipping and usually comes to be about half the price if you…
