Forgive yourself for Christmas dinner!

OK. It's Dec. 26. Time to forgive ourselves for any culinary indiscretions at Christmas. What was, was. Today is a new day for keeping a few days of a food journal, regifting chocolate, and heading to the gym. Hope you all had a happy one.

Amen Betsy!!! I ate WHATEVER I wanted all day yesterday (except of course the rolls and Turkey) and it was delicious!! I didn't let myself feel one bit bad about it too!! Hope you had a good Christmas and Santa was good to you!!!

Thanks all for sharing. Pre-band, it was during this time of year that I would lose myself. Unfortunately, now I have the band I again feel lost. I'm scared about the weight I've put on during the holidays. I didn't just allow myself one day. I've been messing up for at least a couple of weeks.

Thanks for sharing. I'm contemplating getting a fill, so I can get a grip on reality.

Take care everyone.

I'm not banded yet, but was pretty proud of myself with my Christmas eating. Thanksgiving I was AWFUL and felt sick for two days. But, this time, I didn't get seconds at all. Only had one piece of my mom's homeade bread. I did do bad with the homeade christmas cookies though. I had about 4. But then I had about 5 small sausage balls for the breakfast. And a piece of fudge. And two small pieces of peanut brittle. and a piece of pecan pie ... all of this throughout the day of course... EEKK.. ok, I did pretty bad, BUT, considering that I use to eat double this before, this is good for me.

I am really proud of myself. I couldn't eat the Christmas ham. I wasn't on red meat yet. but I did have a teaspoon of all the vegetable dishes. I had half a glass of wine and a teaspoon of buttermilk pie. that's it. From December 21 until this morning, I managed to drop 4 pounds!!!! I was in shock when I returned home and got on the scale. I didn't beleive my sister's scale, but my own scale confirmed it. God I love my band!!!
