In preparation for surgery next: final pastry for a week
Friday, September 27, 2013 at 6:05PM
Now I am consuming my coffee on my break, along with this raspberry pinwheel from House of Bread. It is the last pastry I can have with my coffee for a week. I lost 37 pounds during the course of my summer 2012 surgeries and hospitalizations and the doctor suggested I keep my weight there. But I have gained 27 of those pounds back. And it was a real pleasure doing so. But now the doctor says it will be helpful if I lose 10 pounds before I go back into surgery. So I decided to pretty much give-up on my pastries. Most days, I have a pastry with coffee and then I eat some bread a few times throughout the day too. But if I try to break from them altogether I will fail. I will now allow myself one per week.
