Holiday Failures

I hear confession is good for the soul.

This was my second holiday since being banded on May 17th . Well I have slink back to my old habits. Hot sauce and chips and mexican food, dessert with dinner, a hot dog and scoop of ice cream on July 4th. Pizza with the grandkids yesterday. Oh and I forgot the vodka and cranberry on saturday night. Drum roll please...... I am three pounds heavier today:cursing:. All I can say is why did I do this. Tomorrow I have my second fill. Today I am detoxing myself with plenty of water. Have a good day everyone and thanks for letting me vent.

It sounds like you had fun! As they say, don't beat yourself up over the past just move forward. Good luck on your fill! How long was it between your first and second fills?

I'm right behind you (banded 5/26, first fill 6/28, second scheduled 8/6..........

Thank you, It has been 3 weeks between my fills, I am not sure if they will give it to me as I was told with my first fill that they do not always do a fill on the checks ups. I was surprised that they waited so long to do my post op, I have that as well tomorrow. And yes, I did have fun. I just need to learn to have fun without so much damage.

It is all about the JOURNEY and you are living proof we are all on this JOURNEY together. Thanks for sharing. If this happens to me I get right back in my drivers seat and just keep it under 90. You can do it. Too Enjoy your life thats why we chose the band. Blogging is such freedom. Best wishes imaluckydog

We all fall, just pick yourself up and keep going.

I think of it more as a holiday deviation. The great thing about the band is you can start back today. Didn't do well yesterday? Oh well, I will today and that is good enough for me.
