I hate preparing food. Domestic goddess I am not. Talking to the psychologist at weightlosssurgery it became clear I have a serious mental block about. She identified the ongoing food prep needed as probably the hardest challenge for me post-surgery.
I have been on the strict pre-op diet since last Monday. I have prepared and cooked veges and a small portion of meat every night. No cheating. Tony and I are both eating way better as a result. No salmon sandwich nights, no takeaways, no meat and bread…
Am I enjoying it? No. But there are a lot of things in life we have to do that aren’t really fun, so I am doing what I say to others to do sometimes – suck it up, sunshine!
