A Day Without Cake

Today we had my daughter's 8th birthday party...I've always been a sweet eater...birthday cake was always a for sure thing for me at parties...I never knew how people had the will power or just the unwant of cake (or any sweets for that matter)...but today I realized how much this surgery really has changed me...I didn't even have the yearning to cut myself the smallest crumb of cake...It really didn't hit me until the end of the party after everyone had left...I got so excited when I realized I went through a whole party and didn't even think twice about it...now I know to some people that may be such a small thing but to someone like me with such a sweet tooth that was a huge milestone...anyways just thought I'd tell you guys about it since I know other people around me might not get it as much as all of you...HAVE A GREAT NIGHT YOU GUYS!!!! :D

Thanks for your post and I am so excited for you and looking forward to that day and feeling for me.... Surgery in 3days and passed up cake and birthday parties the past 2 nights .... my friends favorite quote of mine "How do you like your eggs?" "In a cake with frosting." That is part of how I got here (WLS) and I have to say I am glad I am leaving. :)

Thank you for being excited for me...it's always nice to know people are hoping good things for you...I'm excited for you too...and don't worry you will have that feeling soon enough...I hope all goes well with your surgery please keep us updated and if you have any questions or just need to vent or release stress afterwards I'm here for you...I know the first 2 weeks after surgery I had a lot of questions and doubts and I needed lots of support
