Just A Quick Gripe And Comment On My Holiday Eating

My BMI according to my family doctor: 39.96....really?!? I felt like asking "Dont you guys remember school and rounding up?" lol Never thought I would be crossing my fingers that my weight will be juuussst a little higher so my BMI will be officially 40 at my first consult visit. Feeling wise, I feel like it will all be ok. I feel like this is just the beginning of, what is to be sure, a great journey. Doesn't hurt though that it is the holidays and I have been enjoying the food. :) Amazingly, I did not overeat like I usually do. I was shocked that I only ate 3/4 of a slice of dessert. I have to admit...I usually eat more than that...at least the whole slice! Especially when it's Godiva double chocolate cheesecake. I literally patted myself on the back. It is a huge deal that I did not pig out on the cheesecake. :) Just thought I would add that in here since every victory is a victory no matter how "small" and my leaving cheesecake on the plate, is a victory indeed!

Yay, good for you! I too left cheesecake on my plate Chirstmas Eve (only mine was because I couldnt eat anymore being post-op). I wouldnt have had the self-control before the surgery, so congrats! Most of us know just how hard that is to do!

Yay for you!!!!!! I too left the pecan carmel chocolate crust cheesecake on the plate. I ate three bites and that was enough. Oh but I dreamed about it later, good thing it was at my brother's house and not with me. :) Thank God for the Sleeve!!!!!

I know right?!? lol I was like "Oh why did I not bring it home?!?" But I am so glad I left it there. I think just knowing that I will be getting sleeved soon has already left it's mark and the need to eat for enjoyment just wasnt there. I was already pumped up about the changes that were soon to come. I agree...Thank God for the Sleeve!!! Good Luck Ladies!! I appreciate the support. With all of us rooting each other on, we are all sure to succeed!!! :)
