Have a great day my sleevers. I know it's a hard day for some. All ill say is think about your calories and make sure what you eat is worth it (my dads pumpkin pie is so worth it.) this year I will only have a sliver instead of a half pie :-D

I was thinking the same thing. We have so much to be thankful for.

Happy Thanksgiving to all. I am still pre sleeve. But by next year will be feeling the same way as you. Can't wait. Enjoy your day. ????

Also wishing everyone a wonderful, fun-filled day!

Yes, Happy Thanksgiving/Turkey Day! This will truly be a new experience for me...no stuffing my mouth today. Hubby says he is gonna prepare a small sampler plate for me. I look at all the food that is prepared/being prepared and wonder how did I ever take it all in. I am thankful knowing there is no way I will overeat today!

I am thankful for everyone that participates on this site! I have learned so much and wish the best to all my fellow sleevers!

I helped my wife get that 22 pound turkey in the oven this morning,13 for lunch. Relatives will make this great. They all know our story and will not be shocked by the small portions wife and I put on our plates. All are supportive. I am so grateful to God for being alive and slim with a wife in good health and kids that love me.

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Happy Thanksgiving friends!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Enjoy your day! Do pay attention to every bite you put in your mouth. For many of us who cook today, I'm sure taste testing along the way was part of the ritual. Along with munching on leftovers while putting the food away. Maybe recruit others to clean up while you and a good friend, family member or even the dog, go for a walk. Start a new tradition!

Just remember, every bite counts so make it worth it. Do not deprive yourself because this IS the way you need to eat for the rest of your life. Be healthy, successful and guilt free!

Happy Thanksgiving all! I'm just a little over one week out, but my surgeon has ok'd turkey, green Beans, mashed potatoes and stuffing! I'm bringing a small plate and my baby spoon and fork. I'm nervous how my stomach will react since I've been on mostly liquids for two weeks.

I must remind myself how grateful I am for my family and my health and my sleeve!

Happy Turkey day everyone! Today my son is cooking a fabulous bird with all the fixings and we are having double cream blueberry pie or New York Cheesecake. Yumm Yumm, It well be delicious as always and i will have very very small bites, mostly protein and a tiny sliver of pie. Let the game begin......LOL! Happy Thanksgiving and I am so thankful to all my friends on this site and also my family that have been really supportive.

I am thankful that i have a wonderful DH - loving family, and those 3 amazing grandkids

I am so Thankful for this day and for being sleeved June 28. I can still enjoy Thanksgiving just with portion control. Today I am 100 lighter that I was pre-op 357 and now 257! If this isn't something to be thankful for I don't know what is. It is a beautiful day in Houston, Tx and I'm about to go walking. Praise Him!
