Christmas Encouragment

RonKat · December 24, 2007

Goodmorning Merry Banders,

Just want to drop a note of encouragement to everyone that you can make it through the next two days. Try to fill yourself with whats happening AND the new you that you will be next Christmas. We can all do this together. Stay focused and strong. Stay true to the course we set, it is our Christmas Gift to ourselves.

I hope you all have a great holiday!

And same to you RonKat! We CAN do this . . . "they" made 5 pies in my house last night . . . and all I did was go in and advise . . . and the Cookies and fudge they've been making . . . it hasn't bothered me . . . I'm making them Prime Rib today (it's our Christmas today because my son's family goes to his wife's tonight) . . . and I'm poaching a piece of salmon for myself . . . now THAT is willpower to ME :rose: Have a GREAT holiday everyone!

I spent yesterday making appetizers for my family last night. I really enjoyed my day. I watched them eat as I had my shake. I am counting down the days til Thursday when I can begin mushies though. I have been on liquids now for 4 1/2 weeks. I'm ready.

And hey, I am down 22 pounds since surgery on December 6. Wish everyone a very Merry Christmas today.
