Topic: RE: Protein Balls part 2 - Rolled vs. Quick
will do - I read the Steel Oats in a recipe someplace and thought I would buy them so I was ready to make whatever darn recipe it was someday :-) Should be interesting because I had never heard of "steel oats". Oh, the things I've learned on this journey :-)
Topic: RE: What is on your thanksgiving menu?
I'm going to my sister's for dinner and plan to allow myself a taste of everything. I don't dump so my only issue is not over eating. I just have to remind myself that I don't have to eat it all and that even this deliciousness wil come around again. No need to stuff myself.
I am learning to focus on conversation and listening to people

Topic: RE: Wow! and Whoa...moments
What a great list! The only thing I want to add is my Wow moment. I have one practically every day when I look in the mirror or start to walk somewhere or bend down to pick something upoff the florrr and I say to myself, "I love my new body!"

Thank you!
Yesterday I felt hunger for the first time since before surgery, and it scared me. I automatically thought I must be done! The "magic" has worn off! It's hard to overcome the preconditioned response to failure where my weight is concerned.

Topic: RE: What is on your thanksgiving menu?
I will be on a cruise ship..so I'll have plenty to chose from. They're going to have a Thanksgiving dinner option..but I'll be able to have some kind of steak, chicken or fish instead if I want.
I'm going to miss green bean casserole though...I doubt they'll have that. If I was at home I'd make that and eat it..fried onions and all. And I'll take a bite or two of stuffing and mashed potatoes...but nothing else really interests me enough. I'm not a big fan of pumpkin pie.
Oh..I will miss the canned jellied cranberry sauce. There's no way I would dare try that now!

I hear the steel cut oats take a LONG time to cook. Maybe they shouldn't be used in something you aren't going to cook? Maybe they'll be too tough? Let me know how you make out.
