Had Thanksgiving Seconds....



Recommended Posts

....tonight. :) my mother in law wanted to have thanksgiving again so we ended up having left overs tonight. A couple ounces of turkey and some brocolli side dish of 1 oz. Just letting you know that it is possible to get thanksgiving seconds as a sleever. :)

I've had seconds and thirds and fourths, just not much at any meal. Pie and coffee too!

I've also walked my hiney off!

I am terrified... I ate some thanksgiving dinner, a couple of ounces of turkey and some stewed squash but I also had a couple of tablespoons of dressing and a tiny piece of pumpkin pie, not all at once but spaced out. Then I have been having left overs yesterday and today. No pie but turkey and squash and a little bit of dressing again. Not able to have my Protein Shakes like I should but this evening, I had gained two pounds. Still, since I had surgery on Oct 30, I have lost 25 pounds and a total of 35 since pre-op diet. I am sick with worry. Hope eating that dressing and such did not mess me up. I actually lost that extra two pounds with a stomach virus I had just prior to Thanksgiving. I guess, I need to chill and get over it! Right??

Yeah, i took a really good 6 mile suburbia walk with hills. Me and my dog had a great time with the sun on our backs and the wind in our hair. Really felt like I toned up the flab behind my knees and those 2 ounces of turkey from last night. Lol.

I think this was the first thanksgiving for a lot of us. I think I have done awe some compared to other years. My acid reflux is out of control. Taking tums , zantac and nexium. I think it's a matter of blowing it for me but eating smaller portions of rich foods like stuffing. My body is used to the same kinds of foods. Tomorrow I need to let my acid relfux heal. Guess I better do some googling. On the positive side down 52.5 pounds and down to a size 12from an 18/20. All amazing journeys have trials. Tonight mine is chewing enough tums. Lol Merry Christmas

Never weigh yourself at night it's the heaviest you'll be all day.

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
