Thanksgiving Challenge And My Thank You To Bea!



Recommended Posts

So, I did the Halloween Challenge and exceeded my goal which I was absolutely joyful for. The challenge not only allowed me to actually track and see what I am doing (didn't really watch it this way before) but it gave me a focus and a goal that made it fun with all my forum sleeving friends. I am now doing the Thanksgiving Challenge and fingers crossed I should make that goal. If not I will be close.......this was a short one. I will give it my best!!

Yesterday I went to Sam's with my daughter to pick up some needed items. As a rule sweets don't rule over me. In fact, most of the time I can turn a dessert down with little effort but put an appetizer in front of me and that is a killer! Anyway.........As we were going through the bakery section I had the most overwhelming desire to buy and eat all of it!!!!! I was actually dropping the f bomb as I walked through the stuff!!! It must of been a momentary mental breakdown!! I didn't buy any of it but I sure did swear my way through it!!

You know what came into my mind first and foremost?????? My Thanksgiving Challenge and making my goal!!! I want to thank you Bea for caring about all of us and spending your time to help us make our sleeves successful with a bit of fun added in it!! You weren't with me yesterday but you were! Today, I am sitting here another pound lighter and feeling a sense of accomplishment because I didn't partake of the yummy badness that was tempting me yesterday. You have spent your time each week updating our charts and cheering each of us on. I know I speak for many of us in thanking you for everything you have done for us!! I can't wait to start the New Years one!!

Your the best Bea!!! :) :) :)

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

      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! 😞
