How did Xmas go?



Recommended Posts

I think my xmas went ok. It was my second day of soft foods. I ate a little of the mock souffle that was served at Breakfast (mixture of milk/bread/cheese/salt/pepper), but not much at all compared to what i normally would have had if i hadnt been banded.

Oh and i ate a cookie.. ok so it was a SOFT cookie, but i know that was bad..

Other than that i managed to eat some oatmeal + Protein Shake and chicken broth.< /p>

How did everyone else do today?

PS I go in for my first doctor's appointment tommorrow for my post-op checkup and hopefully have a new updated weight for my ticker. All my scales in my house are looking very promising in their predictions ;)

I was worried about having to explain why I wasn't eating, and do you know that not a single person noticed! I was so surprised!! Let me say though - I did carry a plate for a few minutes while I fed my son. There were a couple of things that I had that weren't the best choices, but overall I didn't do too bad.

I did great. I was banded on 12/21. I was not hungry until yesterday 12/25. The food smelled great for the first time since last week. But I stayed on course.

But OH a Christmas Cookie would have been nice!

Hi all,

I think I did good, I overdid it a little. food tasted sooooo good yesterday. I stuck to the soft stuff, except for carrots, I ate a few raw carrots, I just chewed the heck out of them.

One bite of my nephews cookie. That was it. So no sweets for me.

I did fine . . . except broke off a piece of my FAVORITE sugar cookie . . . and only ate a tiny piece of what I broke off because it tasted like sawdust to me . . . so . . . I wasn't tempted any further . . . which is a GOOD thing. I had to pass on the prime rib I cooked . . .but I poached myself a piece of salmon in chicken stalk . . . which tasted like heaven! I get my first fill one week from today . . . so I'm looking forward to that!

I did very good, but I have told everyone, it is kind of cool all my friends and family and co-workers now I have had it done so they are always asking how I am doing. For xmas I had a very small of sweet pot. and mashed pot. and even smaller amout of my favorite broccoli cassarole minus the chunks.I wasn't even tempted.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
