That Moment When.....

I look at my plate and realize for the first thanksgiving in my life I won't be able to finish the small amount or go for seconds. I was able to have a bite of everything I like and was done.

It feels good to walk away but what a serious moment of reality that this is a whole new life!!

I was so happy that I felt satisfied with so little! I'm proud of myself.

This is the first Thanksgiving I'm not stuffed, but very satisfied. Looked around the table at plates piled high with food and said, "Yuck" to myself! Not being judgemental because that was what my plate looked like last Thanksgiving. I had a taste of everything except the macNcheese. I love my sleeve and my new found willpower!

Funny, but I didn't even notice anyone else's plate or food. Too focused on my own food, I guess!

Well I'm 6 months out now and still can't get many meats down so no turkey for me. No great loss. Daughters on a HCG diet, her daughter is two and eats very little and my mom hates turkey...so, we cooked steakburgers on the grill, and had a fresh fruit salad. I was able to eat 1/2 burger with Tomato on thin bun... I have so much to be thankful for!! Can you imagine 4 generations of women/girls in the same house?

It gets very interesting, but there's more than enough love going on in our house.
