Thanks for the reminder that we do not owe anyone an explanation. One suggestion one of my friends does is she takes it home for later, and then gives it to someone else to eat it. Praying surgery goes smoothly.
Hey Kaki! I thought your surgery was this week so I had you on my mind. I hope everything goes well. I am being very thoughtful about Tgiving because my surgery won't be until after the first of the year. I don't want to have a food funeral mentality for my last "regular food" Tgiving.
Husband and I are hosting Thanksgiving so we know I'll have choices that are bariatric friendly. I'm 8 months post RNY. I may have 1T of dessert if I have room after protein and veggies. I'll definitely take some Gas X and take it easy and stick to my usual portions. Some days my pouch is grouchy, other's it's ok.
Thanks for the tips. I’m 2 years post op GB. My plan this year is to have a little of what looks appealing on the Thanksgiving table. I find it amazing how things I used to really enjoy are just ok now and not worth the space in my pouch. I am able to tolerate some desserts so I have to be mindful not to take one bite past satisfied. I will be busy trying to make connections with family you see only at the holidays to stay away from the temptation to nibble. I’ll be sure to keep up with fluid goals to stay satisfied. I like hot tea this time of year to stay satisfied. Best wishes to you for your surgery. Thanks for bringing us along. 🙏🏽

It sounds like you have a good plan for the day! I find the same thing regarding foods that I used to love are now just ok.
Thank you for these tips.
