Boy do I feel guilty. I've been so good for 4 months and stayed on program... until today! I offered to make Halloween cut out Cookies with my 3.5 year old granddaughter. We had a great time, but I ended up eating 3 large ones, which snowballed into left over pizza. ugh....

I have learned my lesson, NO cookies or pizza in the house at all and I will get back on track tomorrow, but I wonder how I could lose control so easily.

Just a wild guess on how you could do such a horrible, horrible thing...

You're human. And I'd bet you make killer Cookies. And you got caught up in the moment.

And you are getting right back on the horse. THIS is the lesson.

We should all screw up once in 4 months.

You will be OK,

Tek

That hits the nail on the head. You realize you made a mistake and you're taking care of it. You're a human. It's okay to screw up once in a while, even more so since you've acknowledged it and are willing to keep trying.

Physically, how did you feel after eating the Cookies and pizza? I would have felt sick. I still can't handle too many sweet today. I get a queasy feeling.

Hi,

I'm pre-op so no advice here lol. Just a question. Did you have trouble afterwards? Dumping?

You are going to have days like this, but you recognized it. I quit smoking 10 years ago, I've a a few since then but it always reminds me why I quit. I am also curious to know how you felt afterwards. I do plan to make a slice of pizza or a cookie a planned part of my diet. I hope I can eat them.

I think thats just part of having grandchildren. Great memories, and fun for them. Now get back in there, and wait for Christmas to slip up again.

It was spread out during the day so not all at once. I felt full. It was the first time I'd had sweets, no problem.

I agree with the 'first time in 4 months' person that said - :ha, we should all be so good to only slip up or go off the plan 1x every 4 months!" Enjoy your grandkiddos and Celebrate how much good you have done for yourself and what you learned through this one.
Best wishes to you!!

      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!!
