Super Bowl LI will be on Sunday, February 5. Super Bowl Sunday is the biggest day of the year for pizza delivery, and Americans eat nearly infinite amounts of chicken wings, chips, and beer not to mention dips, Cookies, and fatty meats. The day is even the second biggest eating day of the year after Thanksgiving. That sure does not bode well for weight loss surgery patients!

But you can cope. How are you planning to get through Super Bowl Sunday without doing diet damage? If you are going to a friend’s house, are you going to bring your own Protein Snacks? Are you going to depend on sipping ice Water? Will you host your own party and serve some veggies, fruit, nuts, and Proteins that you can eat? Are you going to entirely avoid any parties?

Share how you will get through Super Bowl Sunday proud of yourself and feeling confident in your ability to party without overdoing it! Also let us know where you are in your WLS journey so we know which foods you can eat!

That's 2 days before surgery..so I am opting to stay home, clean and pack for my flight the next day.

I just had a big family dinner last night and was happy to sit down with my Soup while they had beef burgandy...and sugar free Jello for dessert while they had strawberries and ice cream. My mom said she almost didn't invite me because she didn't want me to struggle with the menu. I had already been with friends and drinking my Protein shakes or soup...so I knew I could resist. :) Gotta remember, it's just fuel.

Good question. Hit the gym in the morning. Then enjoy some low carb yummy foods. Might try a few new bariatric friendly recipes. Looking forward to it.

I am currently running for a State position with the Veterans of Foreign Wars State of Michigan and I have to go to a District meeting about 2 hours away so I don't think I will be able to go to any Super Bowl get together

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
