I was only a couple months out of surgery last Thanksgiving. Just a bit of turkey and literally one bite of everything else more than did it for me. My capacity hasn't increased much (thank goodness) so I'm anticipating the same - a couple of bites of everything with some of the moister turkey and I'll get the hiccups which is my signal to stop. The day is about being thankful and I am VERY thankful for this surgery. I'll be focusing more on that.

My surgery weight was 400 and they intubated me - and they intubate patients that weigh far more. It's very safe. I didn't go to the ICU, though. They do have alternatives to intubation, but it's actually safer getting it being morbidly obese. I've had surgery 4x while obese and never had issues breathing after.
I follow a ketogenic diet post-op. I also have a diagnosis of binge eating disorder. Feel free to ask me about either!

Had my (hopefully) last phlebectomy appointment! This has really killed my exercise. I have been having a hard time dealing with stress lately, and I'm worried about caving into cravings. I have been pretty strong so far, but it has been a hard month. Next goal: Goal!
Hmmm...Thanksgiving. My son and Family are arriving at LaGuardia on Thanksgiving at 5PM... So I am making a turkey on Wednesday, going to cut it up and keep it in the roasting pan with broth until we decide when we are eating it. Maybe Friday I guess.I've done this before it works, and stays moist. The sides are quick to pull together. I am going to make a Sugar free Apple pie the weekend before and freeze it. We will probably end up eating dinner in Astoria,Queens at a Korean BBQ or something...LOL.

I have been fluctuating between 206 and 208 for 6 weeks. 
Not sure what my problem is but it needs to move... Ack! I want to be below 200!! It is taking way longer than I thought.
Started my second round of the 21-day-fix today. I actually like it. It only works if I do it first thing in the AM.

Tender Filet isn't a restaurant, it's an online site. Lots of good food listed, but it can get pretty pricey, but I really like their food. They deliver it frozen to your house. I like Swiss Colony too, but they have mostly sweets on their site, dang sweet tooth lol.
