WooHoo! I made it through Halloween! [emoji23]



Recommended Posts

Yesterday was my four week mark, and I was very nervous because I knew the candy situation. I’m a teacher, and we have Halloween parties, kids bring me special treats, and then there is trick-or-treating at night.

Not only did I make it through alive, I didn’t have one bite of candy. My cravings didn’t exist. I wasn’t even interested when people brought me my own bag of Snickers. This is the most amazing feeling! I can do this!!!

Have a great day, all!

I am right there with you! So proud of myself!! I handed out candy AND had my annual chili dog and nacho Halloween dinner for the kids and their friends!! I just ate my pureed tuna and while everyone else ate the goooood stuff and I was fine. Another huge victory for me was going to the movie!! The best part of the movie for me is the food and I made it just drinking Water with everyone chowing down around me. Super stoked :)

I made it through, too, with nothing, but there is still a 5 gallon bucket of candy sitting here. MY kids get to eat some tonight and then keep a small container and then it must GO. Sadly, not only do I still have full hunger, but I have full on interest in eating chocolate! I'm hoping if I do ever cave, it makes me horribly sick :)

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
