C mon people no more snoozing
It's pretty hard to stay on track for ANY holiday, since they all seem to involve food and/or candy and treats.
So, I do allow myself a few (NOT highly recommended, especially for those of you who are fresh out of surgery!). The beauty of it is - when you just have a few treats spread out over all the parties and gatherings, they really do seem like TREATS! Whereas in the past, it was... see-how-much-you-can-cram-in-your-piehole-before-someone-notices-what-a-pig-you-are. Ya know?
Nope. I really do enjoy doing right by my WLS when it's especially difficult - makes me feel that much better about myself!
As a matter of fact, I was able to fit into my smallest pairs of jeans again this morning, after NOT fitting in them for probably close to a year! Oh, I'm sporting a muffin top, to be sure, but THEY FIT, DAMMIT!
YAY ME!

Imperfect does not = unsuccessful
Sounds like lots of good work going on before the holidays! Yay, everyone for staying strong and on track. Send some of that my way.
While my eating has been marginal, I have been back to exercising regularly, so that seems to be keeping it under control. Just need to keep that up over the holidays.
