Flame Free Friday Confessions!



Recommended Posts

I entered the Father/Daughter cake contest and auction at my church against about 100 cakes with my granddaughters and daughter and won first prize with this high calorie chinese food simulation and dragon cup cake creation. I DID NOT EAT A BIT OF IT!!!

However,....I also bought a cake from the auction.....and....I...uh....hit it...several times....SMALL BITES THOUGH! :rolleyes:

I just saw myself in the mirror after my shower and I almost threw up. My thighs looks horrible with all this flabby skin. I am very happy I am lighter but I had a moment of thinking "OMG I looked way better when I was filled up". I can't even imagine how it will look when I am at goal!!

Oh and philadelphia cream cheese now make these little containers of strawberry cream cheese. Yeah I ate 2 of them with a spoon. It was just like a cheesecake. Not bad but still who eats cream cheese by the spoonful? :wacko:

I don't have a lot to confess this week' date=' thankfully! I bought a box of those tiny peppermint patties and I'm allowing myself 4 per day (40 calories). That seems to have cured my sweet tooth for now. :)[/quote']

Mmm I have been craving peppermint patties. Every time I watch tv I see those York commercials lol.

We got it out of a book, a combination of 2 different ideas. Oddly, someone else made the same thing but without the dragon cup-cakes. They won 2nd place, good night for simulated Chinese food. :)

Yes, we do parties, provided you live in Florida and pay airfare for 5 plus Hard Rock hotel at Universal Studios accommodations. I'll throw the cake in free. B):D

Actually except for the carbs, your's is the healthiest cheat.

I have this one inch square of 72% dark chocolate everyday. It tastes like sin ;-)

As it turns out, all I could eat we're the toppings dipped into marinara sauce. So I don't feel too guilty at all! I couldn't even eat the topping from one slice!

I guess mine is not soooo bad, but I still feel sneaky. Lol! All my BS life (Before Surgery) my guilty pleasure was Slurpees from 7-11! Even when I was pregnant I always had a Slurpee in hand... Friday is Slurpee day for the kiddos, when I took them after school today I noticed sugar free Cherry Apple! I got myself the little kiddy sized one and could only take a few sips, but it was sooooooo yummy! ^_^

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
