What did you eat on Thanksgiving
I was so worried about feeling deprived on Thanksgiving without having a huge plate of food and then endless desserts. I was shocked at how easy it really was. Here is what I had yesterday, I would love to see yours
B - the inside of a lean pocket with extra cheese
L - 1/2 slice of turkey, 5 greenbeans and 1 Tblsp of macaroni and cheese
D - protein shake
After the thanksgiving meal I went with my parents and size 4 sister-in-law on a walk....I COULD KEEP UP. I am so grateful for this surgery, It was truly the best Thanksgiving ever.

Thanksgiving wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I ate:
B - Protien Shake
L - "pinch" of turkey (pureed) with some gravy, a couple of bites of sweet potato and a couple of bites of mashed potato
Snack - Pumpkin pie (cheryl's sugar free/fat free version) with some cool whip (I didn't eat the crust).
D - A couple of thin slices boiled ham rolled in cheese.
Bed - Protien Shake
B- half of a half of a mini bagel with pineapple cream cheese and apple juice, healthy orchard, low/no sugar.
L- turkey, green beans, tip of fork amount of dressing, tiny bits of broccoli casserole, and squash. (I like to stick my fork bottom on the food and what sticks, I eat, although I did not eat much, just bits of each little thing....I made them, so I knew what was in each one).
D- turkey sandwich, about 1/4 of a sandwich, cheese, no fat mayo, low carb wheat bread, and swiss cheese....full up fast, so then a piece of turkey for a snack later
Snack....before lunch which was at 2pm, I had some cheese and grapes.
I tasted a few pecans out of the pie I made, VERY sweet, funny, used to not think it was.
I made a SF Gingerbread trifle, it was sooo yummy, although my mom complained it was not sweet enough, it tasted sweet to me!
Happy Thanksgiving!
I WAS THE SAME WAY, MS MARY ... I COOKED FOR MY FOLKS & NICK ... & HAD A TINY TASTE OF MY FAVORITES, BUT WAS "FULL" SO I DIDN'T HAVE THE LEAST BIT OF DESIRE TO OVEREAT! I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO SAY THAT SINCE MY MID-20s, SOME 30 YEARS AGO.
WLS HAS BEEN THE ABSOLUTE BEST THING I HAVE EVER DONE FOR MYSELF (NOT COUNTING MARRYING NICHOLAS, OF COURSE!).
GOD BLESS YOU
DAWN & NICK
