5 weeks out, first day of solid foods....

it was my friend's baby shower. food, cupcakes, and candy galore. Open bar.

I did pretty well with my food.

i didnt drink any liquor, bypassed the cupcakes, chocolate covered strawberries...no bread, potato salad

but she had a candy bar...and i couldn't pass on the blow pops sad.gif

sour apple blow pops are my fave....i took two. I had one at the shower. The other is in my bag

I don't feel bad though....it was 60 cals and I tracked it. Still under my cals and carbs. Still focused

Life after WLS

on the up side I got so many positive comments on how good i lookedbiggrin.gif

That's nothing. One or two of those aren't going to kill you. Be careful with the gum though. They say chewing it can add air to the stomach.

I'm 5 weeks out and just had 2, 2oz glasses of wine with a ton of ice. That was my first try with it and I drank it over about 2 hours and it was WONDERFUL! I think a Blow Pop is fine, too!

I think with all of the other things you could have splurged on, you made the "BETTER" choice considering!

Good job!!

I'm just reeling that someone would pass by a cupcake for a blow pop. Reeling. And not even a grape blow pop. Oh mymy.

You're out in the real world. There are blow pops out there waiting to get ya. I sure hope it's a piece of pound cake that gets me!

      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.
