Thanksgiving Food



Recommended Posts

Hey guys, so it is eating season, lol What are some of you going to do to try to encourage / maintain your weight loss during the holidays? And what types of foods are on your families menu?

We are having turkey breast, cornbread stuffing, mac n cheese, green beens, yams, crescent rolls, pumpkin pie, (and a full buttercream sheet cake, it is also my sisters 20th b-day)

What the heck am i gonna do? One thing i am gonna try is to not eat any 2nds!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!!!

I called the host to make sure they had a salad plate I could use. Won't eat anymore than fits on it. Good luck.

I'm really happy I've got good restriction right now. I think this will definately help me. In a way, I'm a little sad I won't enjoy the food as much as I used to in the past, but one day is not worth the misery you feel when you over eat! Good luck to everyone!

One thing I read on here was to remember that its a "holiday" and not a "holiweek", Im having one reasonably sized plate and when the food on it is finished so am I. Just thinking about all the weight I used to gain over 1 day makes me cringe.

I was banded 11.19.10 so I get to be the cooking instructor to my husband and 3 sons. I think it will be fun! I have zero hunger still. We have cut a few things out but will have all the favorites. My family is planning an afternoon walk in the nature park so we can get some nice outdoor family photos while the leaves are still on. I also made a big fresh salad for everyone to have for lunch-ish time so they can make it till dinner at 4ish. Not our usual fatty finger bites.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
