How was your Holiday's a success for you?

3 weeks Post-Op and so proud of how my Christmas went. My husband and I walked everyday even on Christmas and even in the rain. We also realized we can have very small portions of some of our favorites. We always do breakfast on Christmas so I was able to eat a scrambled egg and a few very itty bitty bites of ham.

I am very pleased with the Sleeve so far!! Looking forward to the New Year!!!!

Yeah! You are off to a fabulous start!

My holiday victory is to have 3 years in a row to end the "eating season" at or below goal! Thank you sleeve!!!

I'm happy I've walked every day even in the rain and cold. Also happy with healthy food choices.

I do all the cooking/baking/hosting of Christmas Eve/Christmas Day. I am SOOOOOO happy I did not have a cookie, fudge, truffle, candy of any kind. That is huge for me. It did not bother me one bit either. Drank my Water while everyone was drinking and had A LOT of fun! I have so much more energy it is amazing. I even got on the scale Christmas Day to find I lost 3 lbs that week and did the same on New Years Day and lost another 3. Two months out from surgery and I am down 48 lbs. Could have been more had I been able to exercise but still dealing with a pulled muscle in my calf. I am excited about my new life and Holiday Success. HAPPY NEW YEAR!! :)

Wow! So happy for you! Great job on the weight loss! You are doing great!!

I ate a LOT more "junk" than I should have, but I also pushed the fluids & exercise and in the end I weighed the exact same the week after New Year's Day as I did the week before Christmas. Not too bad for my first real holiday with my sleeve!
