An NSV of sorts



Recommended Posts

i LOVE LOVE LOVE (love) Reese's Peanut Butter cups ... could go thru a whole huge bag of mini's in about 3-4 days before banding...

today we had Halloween at work, there was candy everywhere of course. i walked past my boss's office and voila - Reese's ... i grabbed one and threw it on my desk and went to speak to a co-worker.

i come back and it is staring me down (you know the eyes that are pleading eat me eat me, come on!!!) i go to open the package, look at it, say nope, not hungry and toss it back into my boss's candy dish.

i didnt eat it!!!!! :omg:

Hey LJ,

That is a fantastic USV. When you manage to ignore something ..or infact PUT IT BACK! That is (as we brits would say in slang) Well Good!

Or absolutely Splendifirous!!! I is chuffed for you :P

It shows your band is doing it's job, and you are recognising when you are hungry or not, who could ask for anything more?

Sx

That is a great NSV, you should be proud!

I am having a tough time at work today. I work for an agency that cares for abuse, abandoned and neglected kids. I work in the development office. This afternoon, they are going to be bringing the kids from our campus and group homes by the office to trick-or-treat. I have this huge bowl of candy sitting on top of my filing cabinet in my office waiting for them. It has been tormenting me all day. One of the candies I bought was Twix. That was so dumb of me. I love twix. So far, I have resisted the urge, but I am not sure how much longer I will be able to hold it.

I can so relate tot hat quandry. Halloween has come back with avengance in the UK and the kids are dressing up, so they deserve a treat. I have a bucket (sml) full of gummie bears, haribos and milkyways!

I keep drinking Water every time I am tempted to indulge, it is hard work! Just one little mily way bar, it's fun size as well. It calls to me! Time to hit the Water again!

I am, I can, I will be good!

Happy Halloween!

CONGRATS To You!

No kids, so thankfully there's no Halloween candy here - but temptation can come 365 days a year. It's an ongoing fight, but it's nice to have the band to give that extra kick of willpower.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
