Confessions
I used to dump on sugar and sugar alcohol. I don't know what I was thinking but I tried a bite of a pumkin spice Krispy Kreme donut. OMG nothing happened. So next time I had two bites. Again nothing. Then I ate a whole danish. Nothing happened. What the heck was I thinking? I know better. I has just opened the door to my old life. I don't ever want to go back there. With the holidays fast approaching it is going to be a real struggle. Once the jeanie is out of the bottle you can't put it back in.
On a good note, I am wearing a size 12.
Ooooh! I haven't opened that Jeannie; however, sugar doesn't worry me too much...not a sweet eater...I'm a bread eater. Won't even touch it...no way...no how...I have way way too far to go.
Start carrying around of post-op picture of yourself...as soon as you feel yourself weaken whip that baby out. I have one stuck to my computers (at home and at work), refrigerator, on my TV, in my purse, and even on the table next to where I sit when I watch TV...no auto eating for me. I am thinking of having the thing laminated and made into a key ring as a constant reminder.
Take care,
P.S. A size 12...OMG! That is wonderful!!! I so wi**** was me...I'm still in a 24.

Stop testing!!!!! Just live your life like you dump. I am still a major dumper.. I tested.. and sick everytime.
I don't dump either. I used to get a little winded and tired if I nibble on a 'no-no' item. Now it doesn't phase me at all. Yes the holidays will be a struggle.
Lets make a vow to get through this together!
I promise to post everytime I eat something I shouldn't eat from now until New Year! Hopefully confession (and the printed page) will be good for the soul (and diet).
Good luck to you!
