Its now going into week 6 and I can still report good things. This past weekend I was asked to cook for a friend of mine. I am no chef, but consider my outdoor grill skills above average. I planned deep fried turkey and a slow cooked eye round to go along with a table full of appetizers, sweets, and vegetable dishes. I ate a small slice of a turkey wrap, the kind you just thaw and serve, and it just sat in my pouch. After waiting more than 30 mins to drink, it just sat there keeping me full. There was a little discomfort, but I used it as motivation not to try any of the sweets. The old me would have caved to the pb cookies, but I didn't. Later, I did try a piece of sugar free chocolate cake- the only sf thing there brought by another wls patient- but forgot the sf preserves that were to go with the cake so it wasn't the best. 

Sunday we met some of the other wls peeps from the site at Webers. Wish we could have stayed longer, they are a fun group.

There will be another test next weekend. Bar Mitzvoh Saturday with all the trimmings. Less worried now.
