96 candy bars



Recommended Posts

....have been in my house, UNTOUCHED, for nearly a month. Odds of this happening before the surgery? ZERO.

I can relate to that! I bought a bag of halloween candy and even though its open (i gave the grandkids some) I haven't touched it. It feels so good to have that power!

Love it!!!! However, even with my sleeve, I think I would have touched, smelled, put down, walked away, come back, touched, smelled ... and then finally given in & had a little taste.

Good for you!

:lol: Good for you girlie!! LOL

I just don't trust myself enough yet though, so I won't buy the candy until it's actually Halloween. ;) Not only that, the last kid is gonna get a gold mine!!

Haha, I didn't actually buy them - my boyfriend got them as a gag gift when he left his previous job. He's not overweight, but is a major junk food lover, so I confiscated them from him and am keeping them in my house and doling out one candy bar at a time. I did buy myself some dark chocolate and have been enjoying it responsibly - 2 squares a day once every few days. I find milk chocolate too sweet for me these days - and I used to dislike dark chocolate!

I purchased snickers for the office today. I ate one mini and immediately said yuck. Made me super high from the sugar and it just didnt taste the same. It was AWESOME!! I no longer need candy!! =)

(Happy dance)

I also had a mini ice cream haagan daz coffee ice cream yesterday. All I tasted was the sugar. Those are off my list too.

Its so great to be able to say.. NO, I don't need them. NO, I don't want them. And truly mean it.

Have a great day ladies and gents!

I too have a candy-related story -- the other day my son was eating Gummy bears and I said, hey just give me one -- he kind of looked at me and gave it to me -- it was horrible!! Like eating Kool-aid but without Water -- yuck!!! And I used to LOVE gummy bears. no more gummies for me!! :D

Congratulations on the chocolate -- I'm not confident in myself enough to have it in the house. If there were any Achilles heel I might have, it would be chocolate. So, the fact that you haven't touched them makes you a goddess in my eyes! :lol:

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
