Thanksgiving Theme..... Itty Bitty!!!!



Recommended Posts

So... It's Thanksgiving next week, and I have been dreading it. You know.. all the foods that bring back memories of happy childhoods and family gatherings. Those are my real comfort foods. So since I have been banded this year and won't be able to do the whole eat until you drop thing.. I decided to Theme it. I told the family I am not doing huge Turkey dinner and all the fixings this year.. I am making itty bitty cornish hens (they will look like tiny turkeys...hahhaa) individual cups of mashed tatters and tiny individual pies. Of course they aren't happy about it....I say... COOK YOUR OWN DANG TURKEY THEN! hahahhaha

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

I am making Thanksgiving dinner for my family this year. I'm still making a huge turkey and all the "stuff" we typically eat with it- I'm just sending it all home with them afterwards so it's not sitting around here begging to be eaten.

I do Thanksgiving every year, nothing will change I will do all the delicious cooking and baking. The only difference there will be this year is that I won't eat plates and plates, and plates....

Looking forward to enjoying this time with my family around the table

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
