Ok fellow sleevers...........tell me if I was terriable today...I'm ready and I can take it.

I had surgery 5 weeks ago.....I'm on the "soft foods" part of the food plan. my girlfriends took me to Red lobster to Celebrate my birthday. I ordered the parmesean crusted talipita, broccoli, and mashed potatoes. (I know were not supposed to eat mashed potatots anymore)....but I thought 2 small bites wouldnt kill me. so i did. and mmmmmmm boy were they yummy. but before that, they brought out those yummy garlic,cheese biscuits. I only intended to lick one and that was gonna be all...........well, I bet u can guess what's coming....i ate 3 small bites!

has anyone else been bad like this.....I'm feeling soooo guilty.

I don't see any harm with that. You shouldn't deprive yourself of everything.

mmmmmm. yummmm!

I love those little biscuts!!

I think you did a good job. Just think of how much you would have eaten if you did not have your new tummy! GOOD JOB!!

oh, and Happy Birthday!!

Kelly

First - happy birthday!

Second - you did great! I wouldn't do it every day - but the occasional isn't bad. And it's not like you went totally overboard on it.

I think you did Great! Red Lobster is one of my favorites, and I know I would do a lot worse than you did. I love their biscuits! And I love their mashed potatoes. Carbs are always my downfall! I think you did great. You just can't do it everyday. BTW---Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Purdy

Listen, I go to Chilis every other week and I enjoy the

Heck out of it. We have to continue our lives and continue

Doing the things that make us happy. We just have to be

Careful and moniter the foods and calories we eat.

Now a days most all resturents have a nutritional page on

There web site which makes it so easy for us in helping

To decide what to order. When my friends our family want to go have dinner we decide where we are going and I go straight to thee nut page and decide then what I'm gonna order based on calories, protein etc..., I don't even look at

The menu. It helps me to do this-it may help you too.

Have fun with it and don't feel guilty.

First off young lady, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!! Secondly, haven't we done enough of that feeling guilty all our lives? Lets not do that to ourselves forever, life is way too short. . .I'm so glad you enjoyed your B/day celebration, just get back on the path and walk it straight for now, but remember if you fall off it, just shrug it off and carry on . . . once again Happy B/day!

I think you did just fine. Lick the biscuits. That made me laugh out loud!!! Hey, you still have to enjoy life. Just like everyone already said, an occasional treat is not going to derail you. Deprivation is what leads to excess in my opinion. Let yourself have treats now and then. I love Red Lobster, seafood is my second favorite food after Mexican. Yummy!

Happy Birthday, btw.

Happy birthday! Don't beat yourself up. Good grief. A few bites of biscuit on your birthday is a WHOLE lot better than you would have done in the past, right? That's why they're called "celebrations," because we don't do them every day-- let yourself off the hook for that one. Enjoy YOU!!

Happy Birthday! i agree with everyone. Once in awhile isnt that bad. it's life.

Wow, thanks everyone!

I feel so much better and not so guilty anymore. also, TY for the birthday wishes too.

I love this site...i can confess my sin's, and you all make me feel good about it. Thanks!
