MONDAY ROLL CALL

Okay everyone, there is only3 days till Thanksgiving. So are we all ready to experience our first of many (for the newbies) holidays, after having the GB. This will be my first big holiday since the surgery besides last Easter. Don't over due it take it easy, and just remember that you can always go back for seconds later on in the day night whichever...... Otherwise, how is everyone's Monday going. Mine is good for now, I go to school later. I have not really done anything today, besides go to SR to pick up the last minute things that I forgot, which was just little things. Oh well, hope to see you all posting.... Christie

Staying home since I am not allowed to drive since the surgery. Drinking and taking in all of my protein. For Thanksgiving I am not cooking but going to friends in lower Delaware. I will still be on liquids but have decided to take cream of chicken soup and protein drinks with me. This year for me Thanksgiving is not going to be about food but about friends and family. I have had many years of holiday over eating and now its about so much more, health, family, support and friends. Hope all has a great day!

Hi all, This will be my first holiday since surgery. I have to work so that will help me thru most of the day. They do have a big feast at work but the ladies in the cafteria work with me and give me very small portions at a reduced price. I don't even have to show my card.LOL!!! I will consintrate on spending time with family and planning my black friday attack. I will try to eat mostly protein and vegetables and use the 3 bite rule. I had a very busy day today but did make time to go out to lunch with my husband. I only ordered a cup of bean soup and had a bite of his meatloaf. Usually I order and the food gets wasted. This is an accomplishment for me. See you lighter. Joanne
