Believe it or not, even though I am newly banded (10/20)....I was so nervous about Halloween....i mean, being on my second week of liquids, I'm hungry ....and as someone who loves sugar/chocolate.....i was worried I would crack.

but, i survived! i walked 2.5 miles,   the kids had fun trick or treating, made pizza for them and the hubby for dinner...(i had tomato soup), and all is well.  i know it's a minor thing....but i feel like i conquered something!

and i am so looking forward to thursday when i see the nutrionist and can start mushies

I hear you so loud and clear.  The HARDEST thing for me was carving pumpkins and scooping out all of the delicious pumpkin seeds...knowing I could not eat them...I was banded on 10/18 and beyond the candy of the day, those little seeds are my absolute favorite.  

So, we prepped them, I baked them...I had to smell them...but I let them cool and bagged them for a few more weeks until I am off mushies...hopefully they will last!

The way I see it, I go to food the day before the big University of Miami/University of South Florida game here in Tampa...and those little guys will be a halthy alternative for me for a day of tailgating with friends!

I just ate my first piece of candy just a minute ago - a little fun sized Twix.  I actually got two out of the bag and only ate one! Yay us!  As soon as the baby wakes up, we're going for a walk too!
