Have a Holly Jolly Christmas!



Recommended Posts

Lyrics by LittleBill, with apologies to Burl Ives. :P

Have a Holly, Jolly Christmas,

And skip drinking egg nog

Cause if you do, I'm sure that you,

Will have your weight loss bog.

Have a Holly Jolly Christmas,

Eat your Protein dontcha know?

If you eat carbs, and things with lard,

You're waistline's bound to grow!

Ho, ho, the mistletoe, at least that stuff's fat free!

You can indulge in it, without a calorie!

So have a Holly Jolly Christmas,

And behave yourself this year.

Stay on your course, it could be worse,

But better things are near!

Merry Christmas to everyone.

Last night I took a picture of me in my Santa hat and Christmas sweater (just before I skyped with my long-distance man--who I'll be with for new year's weekend and more!!). What a difference from the one I took 15 years ago when I was almost 100 pounds heavier, trying to look cute. This picture--yes, years older--I loook sooo much better, happier and internally 'jolly'. Thank God for my VSG! Merry Christmas.

Thank you! We had a wonderful Christmas with my parents, my brother, and his daughter. It was small and quiet, and we really enjoyed it.

@@LittleBill Actually, this current picture is in a Santa hat and a [nice] Christmas sweater, but with a red camisole, so the top of my cleavage shows ;-). The older picture, was in a Santa hat and in a red teddy with the straps showing [Happy?? ;-)] But the new picture is still better, I think. Too bad I'm so private, I'd show it!!

I did not mean to put you on the spot. I've just seen some Christmas pictures over the years where the subject had on what you describe, and nothing else. I did not mean to pry into your privacy. But I could not resist asking. :D

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
