Who Got Stuck For Thanksgiving?



Recommended Posts

My thanksgiving isn't going to be until Saturday, so I'm going to be very careful.

Happy Thanksgiving. I did not get stuck. Last year I did. I did have a few bad things but spaced out my eatings.

Feel better.

I hardly ate anything....No turkey at all, I really was not that hungry......I mostly grazed on the pre dinner appetizer foods put out, while watching football on TV.......veggies and dip, shrimp, cheese, crackers, etc, all kinds of little goodies....couple glasses of Merlot,, and maybe 2 beers......that was about it...

I did have a nice piece of berry pie, avoiding most of the crust, along with some ice cream later in the evening.......

But absolutely no stuck episodes, or anything even close....

It wasn't any thing for me, but more the process of grabbing a bite here and there as I cooked the meal. I am coming to understand that the band regulates the process of eating, not just the quantity. To many times I get stuck because I am in a hurry.

I was so busy visiting and monitoring dogs I was trying to take a bite and actually forgot to chew thoroughly so a piece of chicken got me. Luckily it passed on it's own but it was close to a PB and I was very uncomfortable for a few minutes there.

I got stuck with preparing Thanksgiving, but did not get stuck with any food item, myself. ;) .

Hashtag how I wish someone else in my American expat group of friends would take over this yearly task!!!

Thanksgiving was my first day of mushies so my Thanksgiving dinner was half a cup of mashed potatoes with about a teaspoon and a half of gravy and a little fat free shredded cheese melted in. Soooo yummy. Seriously, it was heavenly.

I adore that I am happy and satisfied for hours on less than a cup of food. Without my band, I would have eaten so much, been miserable and five pounds heavier by the time I got done with the leftovers. No more of that nonsense.

:D

No stuck episode for me! I enjoyed a taste of everything I'm allowed on the plan my Doc has given me. I just had to endure the loving scrutiny of my 18 yr old niece who liked to pick on me for eating small bites and chewing a lot. Family....gotta love em.

      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!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
