In used to think that discipline was denial. It's not! It's choosing the thing that is worth more.

Mmmm ... I was not so disciplined.

On Sunday night, one of my long-time friends turned up with his wife, his birthday cake and a tub of ice-cream.

He cut everyone a piece of cake and dished it up with a scoop of ice-cream.

I had two teaspoons of cake and about a half scoop of ice-cream and explained that I was not going to attempt to eat more.

Said to my wife later that a real test would have been to not have eaten any.

Power to you, @I AM WORTH IT.

Oh, I don't know about that. You did good. Sometimes having just a little is harder than having none. Remember the old Lays potatoe chip commercial? "You can't have just one?". It's true.
And I celebrated that success because i struggle and I'm not always successful.

I'm an airline pilot, and we serve fresh baked cookie to our first class passengers. Every flight I smell them, and want one bad. lol. For the last year I've passed every time except one.

I've been to three celebrations where cakes were served post op. I've posted this before, I don't enjoy food. Pre op food and I were the best of friends. I have no desire to eat anything much less sweets. For me it's a very strange feeling since i always wanted and did indulge in food. To those who still crave the sweets and fight the temptations I salute you. I don't know if I could be as successful as you if I still had those cravings.

I pray that I have your experience post-op.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
