Should I feel bad about eating what I want today? Ive had the sleeve since August 28th.

I say never feel bad. Keep your head, eat sensibly....and be happy about your decisions. We all wanna be normal right? Well normal people have a treat or 2 on thanksgiving. Enjoy a sleevers portion and don't beat yourself up about it. Just make sure what you do eat will not set off your cravings later on.

I think you should enjoy yourself today and not worry about calories. I had my sleeve on July 29 I ve lost 90lbs and I'm celebrating my journey and how thankful I am that I had this surgery. Today I am eating what I want and not counting it on mfp. I am celabrating the fact that last year I could have ate two plates of food and now I can barely eat a fourth of all that. So yes today I'm gonna try all that wonderful food and be stuffed just like last year but with way less food in my new tummy.

I thought it was an incredible experience today to just have a bit of all the good stuff. This sleeve is amazing!

And it was shocking to see how much everyone else ate. I used to out-eat everyone with 2 full plates of everything, and then I'd start on the leftovers as soon as everyone left. Gosh. The change is phenomenal.

I had my sleeve this September and while I wasn't worried about Thanksgiving, I was curious. It's pot luck with my family so I brought a FF cream cheese crab dip, sweet potato oven fries and a high Protein mushroom stroganoff so that I'd have something besides turkey breast to eat. I too was shocked at how much everyone ate because I know I could have out paced everyone last year.
