Yo, I'm from Philly

I just couldn't take it anymore....I had a little piece of a good soft pretzel last night.  Not even the knot,  It was glorious! Of course i waited til I was home, not knowing how it would sit.  No problem at all!  And now my craving is satisfied.  The "old" me would've eaten at least 2 whole pretzels.  (Oh yea, I also had a couple licks of chocolate chip gelati....heaven....)

Can't see a problem with it, as long as it doesn't become the "gateway drug".  Eventually, our tummies will be stronger and we'll be able to handle more.  Right now, since you and I had our surgeries pretty recently, our tummies can be pretty sensitive.  It must have felt great - a Philly pretzel is awesome.  You can have a cheesesteak, too - at least the insides!

 

Haha, Corbin....gateway drug....Love it!  I'm so afraid of carbs.....had one bad incident, and that was plenty.

I feel so good in general, but this ole belly is pretty sensitive.  I forget it hasn't even been 2 months, until I try something I shouldn't.  Every day is a new experience!

That doesn't sound so bad. Maybe two months out is a soft spot. I had to try some brown rice triscuits from my latest shopping trip. I made 4 little sandwiches with cream cheese - no ill effects yet (4 hours and counting - more for the game tonight). I too like the gateway drug comparison. Pretty funny. Luckily I still don't have room to go to far off track.

Triscuits!

hello fellow Philly DSer! I haven't tried a pretzel yet... afraid I won't be able to stop myself. but today I did have a piece of cheesecake... keeping it the only carbs I have had for the day.

Wow..cheesecake!  You're brave!   But you do have 5 months on me....

It's only once in a blue moon I allow myself a treat,it was a small small peice. And I'm home..wouldn't do it if I wasnt...I'm already paying for it. I don't think I could hold back with pretzels

soft pretzel and a rita's water ice.  oh yeah. .

my co-workers laugh at me, 4 years out and i will only eat 1/2 a pretzel and a few bites of a child's size water ice (mango - yum).  i put the rest in the freezer and scrape off a few spoonfuls when the urge hits me. 

in my book, it's all about moderation and balance

Looking forward to Rita's too!  I've always been more of an ice cream gal (obviously), but I have been eyeing up the Rita's lately...
