My question is:
How do you plan to eat appropriately over the holidays? What about all the goodies at work? How do you avoid them? Or do you allow yourself a small amount?

My first post-WLS Thanksgiving was spent with a friend of my sister's - who had WLS a few years earlier. I was about three months out, so was stll following rules concienciously... so we go to this dinner, me thinking that it wouldn't be too hard to eat just turkey (HA!). Debbie is a Pampered Chef rep and an AMAZING cook - I don't know how she managed to avoid her own cooking as long as she did! The dinner was unbelieveable... and I tried a taste of everything.... I was sooooooooo sick!
Since then, I've had a few other holiday dinners, and I've learned to eat the protein first, then taste a couple of other bites... like every other day of my life. I hate being sick, but especially on holidays!
Happy Holidays!

So, I had my once-a-year physical with my GP yesterday, and we got into the topic of plastics. Mainly, whether or not my insurance (which will be changing beforehand anyway) would cover any of it. We've been documenting any rashes or problems I've been having in areas that never had trouble before (under my arms is the worst), and at least this way, if I need to appeal, I will.
Here's the question. How many of you are considering plastics? How many of you would consider them if your insurance would cover it?
Since I haven't had kids yet, I'll probably do my arms, boobs and sides in one shot. After I pop out a few babies (LOL), I'll get my tummy and thighs done.
So what's your plan?
