Ugh nothing in my band means no restriction..Easter means food, GOOD FOOD.. I'm pretty sure I might have over ate slightly.. Ugh. Anyone else?

Yes I had a Lindt bun y

I know I did, but quite honestly I'm fine with that. One day off isn't going to sabotage anyone. Christmas was a freebie day for me, too. Tomorrow I'll be back to my normal diet.

A couple "bad" days a year hasn't hurt me and quite honestly it keeps me on track the rest of the time because I don't feel deprived.

Okay I just feel bad but you have a good way of looking at it.. I'm almost 3 weeks post op and just want to feel restriction.. But had none today.

I had a splurge day also....back to the plan tomorrow....definitely going to the gym. I am 10 weeks post op -42 no fill yet ...I think I need one. My meals are not holding me!!

Almost feel bad saying I had a great day.Today is day 5 post op so really didn't want to be bad. Made a butternut squash pear soup and pumpkin fluff to take to dinner and truly enjoyed it and the conversation with special friends. Looked at the homemade peanut butter eggs and admit I wanted a taste but didn't do it. Actually worried I didn't eat enough today but its too late now to have anything but my Sobe water, the bushel of pills it seems like I am taking right now and call it a night. Loved the sentiments about special days and knowing they will be there every year of this new life.

I'm with you Mis73 on this. I give myself a day off on holidays. I know that I work with my band most of the time and I will get back on meal plan tomorrow.

I'll probably pay the price tomorrow because of the chocolate intake, but oh well. Life is too short to not have a few indulgences.

my indulge was a snack of popcorn this afternoon, I couldn't help myself, other than that, I've eaten good all day, hope it didn't do too much damage to the scales.

Try not to think of it as "good" or "bad". Life happens! We just gotta stick to our exercise routines, and eat well the majority of the time to offset it. I had a few big slip ups these past few days that I feel guilty about, but all we can do is move forward with a solid plan for this upcoming week.

I am encouraged by your post! I thought popcorn was the only food I would not be able to eat in the future and it is my most guilty pleasure. I have something to look forward to (besides how hot I am going to look eating it! ) LoL

Lol love it !! It will be nice to even go into a Walmart an find cute clothes to wear again
