Halloween ????

Oh my gosh! Someone who shares my love of cereal!! I ADORED Cereal pre op. Ate it for Breakfast, ate it for lunch, ate it for dinner, ate it for a snack (not always of course, but always an easy "go to" when I didn't feel like cooking).

Probably why I got up to 235 pounds, lol. I really miss it. And the more sugary, the better. I was eyeing the Count Chocula in the store the other day with fondness....

Hahahaha yep it was eaten many times in a day sometimes.

When my husband worked the eve/night shift I'd have cereal for dinner.

Another cereal that I couldn't stay away from was Raisin Bran.

But I'd have it with cream not milk.

Can't believe I just admitted that.

Lol

My husband doesn't like cereal so there's none in the house so I'm safe. Hahaha not that I'd eat it now anyways but still, don't need it taunting me!

Trust me, you guys definitely aren't the only cereal killers here. I've had a special relationship with cereal my entire life. It started with fruit loops.

In fact, my mom tells me my first ever punishment (for coloring on the wall when I was just old enough to know better) was having my fruit loops taken away for a few days when I was 3 yrs old.

Over the years I grew to love cereal even more. Corn Pops. Life. Lucky Charms. Fruity freaking Pebbles! And any time of day was fine - breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack, 3 am after the bars closed in college.

I definitely miss it. But not enough to trade in the 25 lbs I've lost to get it back.

Love this thread! My hubby also brings it home, and we live in a condo with a security entrance, so NO chance of trick-or-treaters either. Our deal is that he can only buy the stuff I don't like. It pretty much works too. (Yes, you may buy Butterfingers or candy-corn, NO you may NOT buy anything Reeses or straight chocolate!!!)

And @Julie norton I laughed out loud at the chocolate siren! YES - that's me too. Seriously, it's my crack.

Happy to report that other than one small lapse with the snickers I have managed to stay away from the candy. :) Yea me! Just one more day to go and then it is out of the house! (such a different attitude from last year. haha)

I have also improved my attitude on Halloween and am finally getting into a little bit of the spirit. Bring on those tricker-treaters!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
