Serena THAT'S GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CONGRATS!!!!

Robin look at you girl!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are amazing!!! Great job keep slammin those pounds off girl!!! WOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOO i know you can i know you can i know you can

The way I figure it...if they told me NOT to eat it, then I won't. I know some local girls who had the surgery in August and they are eating all kinds of things we were told not to, they seem to think if they don't dump, why can't they eat it??? They are also not drinking their water or getting enough protein...all by their own admission. And drinking alcohol. ( I refuse to touch alcohol based on all the info I have heard about transfer of addictions) They say things to me like.... "so and so doesnt know what they are talking about, I eat/drink that all the time and have no problem" I wan my surgery to be as successful as possible, for me its not about seeing what I CAN get away with eating, but eating what I should. Getting the most out of my RNY tool. (Judi I am not trying to imply you are doing any of this....I guess Ive hijacked the thread and turned it into a vent..LOL) I have made a few mistakes, especially over Christmas, I had a few nibbles of different treats. but never had a treat without first having some protein and Veggies. Would have the little treat at the end. The old me would have skipped lunch and eaten an entire box of chocolates. In the end...I don't know all that much about nutriton and bad carbs/ good carbs etc.... but if I was given a list of specific things NOT to eat.... then Im not going to eat them. Saying that I will admit I ate mashed potatoes at Thanksgiving and Christmas..LOL The no potatoes list came from a surgeon who didnt do my surgery....small amounts of mp is ON the list from my surgeon. Sorry I'm babbling. Bekah, thanks for the compliments on my photos..... I am just 5 lbs from ONEderland and 55 lbs from goal. 143 ls gone forever!!! Becky
