Oops. Thanksgiving. Too much pie thankfulness



Recommended Posts

Had a lost moment where 6 pies got a little too much tasting .

Went and worked out today... determined to not let a small stumble be a large fall.... into a vat of pumpkin and whipped cream. Yikes

Good for you. I actually don't think twice about going nuts on a day like Thanksgiving. Yesterday, besides turkey I had mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, yams, caramel apple pie, blueberry cheesecake AND pumpkin pie with whipped cream. All small portions of course, but more carbs than I usually have in a whole week. But I've learned through the years that one day is not going to derail my weightloss no matter how "bad" I am. As long as it's an exception, not a rule, I don't worry about it.

Hope you enjoyed the six pies....don't feel bad about it and you are right back on track. That's what matters. BTW, what kind were they?

Home made pecan pie.

I had a piece yesterday, but my husband needs to hurry up and eat the rest before I do.

Somewhere I read it's not what you eat from thanksgiving to New Years but what you eat New Years to thanksgiving. I'm not going that far, but yea not gonna worry about the fact that I ate more carbs in one day than the whole week! Just won't let it become a new normal.

      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!
