So thankful

My weekly weigh-in was today and I lost 9 pounds this week.  I think this is the first Thanksgiving that I was actually able to lose weight instead of gain.  The kicker?  I didn't feel deprived one bit.  I actually enjoyed the day even more, because my focus was not on food in the least.  I wasn't worried about what I was going to eat at all.  I was able to enjoy the time I spent with my family and friends around me.  I am so thankful for my tool and everything it and my bariatric team has taught me!!!!
