I hope everyone, no matter where you are in the journey, has a wonderful Thanksgiving. I remember the first holiday after surgery, I was so scared about what to eat, not to eat, it drove me crazy. Now, I'm a little older and would like to think wiser, and will enjoy the company, tastes of food; including dessert and just have a "mindful" holiday. I'm going to the shore and will try to get in a walk on the beach weather permitting. I'm actually going to a "vegan" Thanksgiving and there will be lots of veggies, fruit and healthier food so it might be a little easier not to stray too far off the path
Personally, 7 years post-op and still going strong; I'm very thankful for the tool I was given with surgery and try to use it well one day at a time. I've also "resolved" to myself and now all of you; that I'm going on the pre-op diet on Monday for 2 weeks until my colonoscopy (my excuse) for doing the pre op and I will be very interested in seeing how much I can lose even 7 years post-op! Stay tuned for details!
