Lee, I have found that nibbling is the enemy. Seek out the protein and fill all the way up on it. I find that once I'm full, the temptation is way less.

I feel ya.....I've had too many BLT's lately (bites, licks, and tastes).  I don't really "dump" per se but I haven't felt good at all.  Yesterday, I went back to normal and filled up on protein so the BLT's of junk didn't tempt me!  God help us!!

January and New Year's is right around the corner...that's when all the stores, marketing,etc, turn to health and weight loss.   We should be back to normal soon!!!

Thanks for your rant.   I feel better!

i was tortured all day yesterday as well.....all kinds of goodies at work!  i did really good....refused to take the first bite as i know all too well how it could end.....i find it really hard to stop and i don't even want to go there!

the funny thing is.....this week its all about food, food, food......next week it'll be all about salads and lean cuisine's and low fat/low calorie stuff......at work and on the t.v. commercials!

what a hoot!  i feel so much better this year!  this time last year i was just starting the pre-op "hoop jumping" for my insuance approval!  never would have dreamed i would feel this good this Christmas!

loving this RNY!  still don't know if i dump.....haven't tried anything that would make me dump...........i'm much better off assuming i do and leaving it at that!

hope you all have a very Merry Christmas!!
Blessings,  J

I am sooo glad I don't work in an office anymore. I do well fighting it when I am places with bad food because I don't even start. If I have one cookie or one chip, I don't stop. I know Christmas will be bad, but I figure it's ok to have a bad day occasionally, I'm totally on track this week and I'll be back on track next week.

If it's not the holiday's, it's a birthday celebration or a retirement party or something else. We just have to learn to get past the "celebrations" in life and live with them like everyone else. Just because they are there doesn't mean we have to overendulge.
