Don't beat yourself up over a moment of weakness. It happens! Just start back on the right track and eat only what you are suppose to eat. When I give into my weaknesses I exercise longer to work it off.

Have a great day!

Oh my . . . how did you do that???

this topic made me smile. dead bunny made me frown.

::imagining what the lap band goddess looks like::

we got the bunny when he was only 2 weeks old...he was use to being out of his cage and handled....i gave him an apple slice and he would sit on the kitchen floor and eat the whole slice...i went to the gym last night and didnt take my nikes off...i told my son to let bunz out and gave him a slice of apple...i was watching him eat it and packing my son's lunch at the same time...he decided not to finish his apple slice last night and hopped right under my foot...i stepped on his neck...broke it and he died...my son and i are devasted...we rescued him...he was very ill and too young to b away from his mother...we nursed him back to health and watched him transform in2 a very happy...active....healthy bunny. we both stayed up crying all night...my son referred to his bunny as his brother....since he is an only child....we r going to adopt 2 bunnies 2night hopefully they will have the same personality as our lil bunz....

that is so sad! condolences to you and your son! :thumbup:

thank u vanity...i learned a very hard sad lesson...no more letting bunnies roam freely...i went and bought a play pen for the bunnies that r coming home with us 2-night

Sorry to hear about the bunny -- Justmake sure that you do not adopt a male & female or your entire garage will turn into a bunny hutch...It is hard to lose a fur baby.

I was banded Oct 15.. Still not exercising .. Cannot even walk since there is so much rain every day - day & night. I need a boat to cross my back yards.. The neighborhood kids will have to use jet skis and zodiacs for trick or treating .

I also have 2bad knees, 1 replaced - not so good ,, the other one is SHOT and I cannot get in the pool until after 5 weeks.So this is difficult for me .

Much worse things that you COULD have eaten. As others have said, don't beat yourself about it. Use it as a learning experience. Was the guilt worth it? Probably not or you would not have posted about it. Does the LB Goddess forgive? I think so. She loves all her children.

The Lap Band Goddess needs to forgive me too, LOL. My adult granddaughter lives with me. I'd bought Halloween candy for Saturday but I had NOT opened the bags as I planned to do that just before the kids starting showing up. Well, my granddaughter opened ALL THE BAGS and dumped all the candy in a huge basket and put it on the piano. I stood right there and ate 4 fun size Milky Ways. realized what I'd done and took that basket of candy into her room and DEMANDED to know why she opened all the candy. Her excuse...it "looks nicer in the basket". So I had to explain to her that once the bags were opened the candy was fair game, too easy to snag a piece. Then I told her she had to keep all that candy in her room where I couldn't see it.

She weights like 120 pounds and I know she doesn't understand the concept of closed bags = unavailable. Geez, I was kind of mad at her at first but like I said she doesn't understand. Guess I'll just have to be mad at me, LOL

well you know it would be silly to think that the band magically makes us not want to eat something bad! I look at it this way....if you dont allow yourself to do it every now and then you might have an attack and just binge so dont worry about 1 little ounce! It'll be okay so long as you are aware that you are doing it!

I guess I just don't see one ounce of cream cheese as bad. It is low in carbs and is actually a staple in my daily routine. I eat cheese balls and flatbread crackers multiple times each week. Well, I don't eat the whole cheese ball in one sitting but you get the idea.

You have to have some things you like in your diet or you will burn out. I have never restricted what I ate. I let my band do that. If my band says it has had enough then enough is enough. I just don't sit around eating all the time. THAT would be bad.

Personally, the LapBand Goddess would have nothing to forgive other than that you did not share with her! :thumbup:

I need forgiveness too I bought a freaking bag of candy for Halloween cuz I KNOW the kiddies in the building will be coming and I just cannot have this crap in my house. Cuz guess what - TOM plus candy = well you know the rest.

BTW one oz of cream cheese isn't bad at all its 100 cals 10 grams of fat tops if that. I agree w / sistasassy...BUT the lap band does crap to restrict junk food like candy - UGH ok penance at the gym tomorrow!
