Oh Halloween Candy I hear your siren call



Recommended Posts

Yep, it's finally in the house, but still in sealed bags. I hear it "Lyyyynnnnddddaaa eeeaaaat meeeeee" but I will not fall off the wagon. I'm still 5 lbs 9 ounces over goal and I'm allowing myself ONE day of candy, popcorn, cocktails, and chili. Tomorrow. My size six jeans thank me.

Thank you BP for being here for me, through thick and thin, and here's hoping there's never thick again in my future.

I have already enjoyed a carmel apple cider (sugar free cider mix with a splash of SF caramel syrup), apple slices with PB2, and a graham cracker after dinner. Yes, that's enough. But I might have a pumpkin Cream (Soy milk with a splash of SF pumpkin Pie syrup) before bed.

Vets, I salute you as we march through another holiday season. This year, as last year, my Christmas present to myself will be to arrive at New Years at goal.

I love this post unfortunately I'm in Singapore and there are next to none of those fantastic S/F flavourings here. I take a day trip to KL as often as I can to get the Syntrax nectar other than that the basic chocolate or vanilla Protein powder. Not a lot going on here with Bariatric surgery and those that are doing it charge crazy prices. So we had to go home to have our surgery over 12 months ago. I get jealous when ever I read about some of the great products you guys can get so readily. Good Luck sounds like you had a plan and stuck to it.

      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!
