Thanksgiving....what Are You Thankful For? And What Will You Eat?



Recommended Posts

I'll start...

I'm thankful for my Sleeve & the weight loss (an obvious), family & friends, health & happiness.

I will not obsess that day & plan on eating at least a spoonful of all my favorites.

Thankful to be alive :) It's been a tough year medically. Thankful to have my family around me for the holidays.

I'll enjoy dinner and wine and pumpkin pie. Just over a longer period of time and smaller amounts. :)

Oh and thankful I lost 7 lbs last night (I must have been aggressively exercising in my sleep LOL) so I can actually meet my thanksgiving goal!

I am thankful for the most amazing family. I love them all from my children to Grandma! Everyone should have a family like mine.

I really want to eat turkey, sweet potatoes and green bean casserole. Don't think all of that will fit.

I am thankful for all of my family. I love them so much. I am thankful that I had this surgery done on Oct. 2, I also am so very thankful that my daughter was approved to get sleeved due to medical reasons. Now we can be happy and healthy together.

I am so grateful for my life, my health, and the ability just to say THANK YOU to the Lord for this year is finally turning around. I've lost 59lbs so far and I don't feel tired anymore, my energy is coming back! :D I am going to my mom's house for Thanksgiving my mom asked what I could eat and she is making the menu based on my stage of food she has been so supportive in this. I don't know if she is making stuffing this time if so, I'm having a tiny spoon of it, but I'll make sure to eat my turkey first :rolleyes:

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
