Well I made it thru the Thanksgiving and Christmas foods w/o gaining any weight! Hooray for me. I have continued to lose regularly and am so thankful for every ounce. I would never have done that in the past. I am fast beginning to realize that food isn't that important to me. I think my New Year's resolution is going to be "I'll eat to live...not live to eat.":smile2:

Does anyone else feel successful about the holidays?

Yes, Total success....

I have not gained over Christmas, and have lost 15 pounds since Thankgiving. I was banded 3 days before Thanksgiving, so I was on liquids then and had limited my plans. I Cooked all the regulars yesterday, Turkey, Ham, stuffing, mashed and sweet potatoes, cranberries, apples, cheesecake etc for christmas. I ate a little of all, and the Cheesecake was made with sugar free Jello cheesecake mix and 1% milk, lite cherries and lowfat crust.

Then to top it off, went to a movie without eating!!! This is my biggest success since I used to have to have a Large extra butter popcorn.< /p>

This am, my BP is 123/76. Blood sugar 93, and weight still at the lowest yet.

Get my first fill this next week. On to more losing weight and off the the gym this morning....

I am so happy, and proud of myself for getting throught the holidays still losing weight! In the past I would be shopping for the next size clothes the day after Christmas, but not this year. For the first time in 20 years I didn't feel like I was going to explode after a holiday dinner!

I made a couple of food choices that were not the best, but I was able to take a bite or two and be very satisfied, I didn't have to stuff myself.

Today is a new day and I am back on track, back to only healthy choices.

Congratulations to all of you!

I also feel pretty good about getting through the holidays. I had a fill just before the holidays that's left me just a bit too tight so I can't eat most solid foods but, believe it or not, there's no problem with cookies! I had a couple Christmas Eve and a couple today and am feeling pretty proud of myself because I could've eaten a lot more (self-justifying it as compensation for having to pass up all the other good food :blink:) but I didn't.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
