Proud of Myself

I just have to share.  This Christmas was the second in which I didn't have sugar, not even a taste!!  Believe me I was surrounded by tempting foods.  I am so proud of myself, I would never have been able to do it pre-op. I have to admit pre-surgery I thought I would be really proud of myself when I lost weight, but I don't,  I'm kind of neutral.  I think it's because it's so overwhelming.  But I am really proud of not eating sugar, I feel like it is a super accomplishment.   I am also proud of fact that I have learned to take care of myself.  On Christmas my nieces were making chocolate covered things ( marshmellows, pretzels...)  It started to become hard for me to deal with so I decided to take a shower to get completley away from it.

That is a huge accomplishment. I'm proud of you too! I switched to SF stuff but it's just a stop gap measure. I need to just not eat that sweet stuff at all. I'm weak.
Yes, RNY worked for me but it also requires a lot of work from me!

Thats awesome!!!! I wish I could have that will power. We had a open house here yesterday then went to my brothers birthday party last night. I took the rest of the sweets to his house so now my house is sugar free for the start of the new year. Debra
