I had the ultimate test of willpower today. I am sitting in a faculty meeting around 3:45, and we have about 50 pizza delivered, every topping, every type. They sit four pizzas at every meeing table. I wanted a slice so bad, but i knew it would only get stuck, make me hurl, and probably make my already tender tummy hurt even worse. i have not had to throw up yet and I know my will power will probably be way less once i know my incisions have healed and it is less likely that i will damage my band. BUT today right as I drink another bowl of beef broth i fell damn good about myself. ·

I feel good about you too! That was one HUGE temptation and you did good.

Keep it up.

Yo go girl!~ My willpower was strong a month after surgery but it is fading FAST . . . on count down until I hit the green zone for sure!

That is awesome! Keep up the good work. Today at work someone brought in a "sophisticake" . The woman who makes these cakes is very well known in my area any special occasion that i need a cake for she makes it and let me tell you they are the best damn cakes I've ever tasted

lol but I didn't touch it. was so tempting tho

@Kristinsmoma, you rock too!

Excellent job!

Good for you. I was in a meeting that went long today so my boss, who is one of 6 people who I have told, say he wants to get his lunch before we start our confernece call. Greasy drippy cheeseburger, fried onions, soft bun and all the toppings, the smell was to die for - all homemade and heated up at work. And me, starving, didn't think I had enough time to get my shake made........... Shake it was........move on.

WOOHOO

YOU GO GIRL

You SHOULD feel good about yourself. AWESOME!! One day at a time...

Yes, you did great...and should be proud of your choices!

I remember that the day before my surgery, I had to host a luncheon for my woman's club (I had agreed to the date months prior to knowing my surgery date). It was held at one of the best restaurants in town...I watched everyone enjoy their Entrees...and I sipped on ice Water. But do what you know you need to do for your own well being.

You successfully passed one of what will likely be many such tests...well done!

Wow I love this site. You guys make every day a little easier. I truly am thankful for all of the support!!! And woohoo to all of you for making it thru another day of temptations BANDED AND PROUD BABY!
