Ahhhh... it's beginning to look a lot like Turkey... everywhere I go... (OK - no more singing to my blog). I have a feeling that this year is going to be a lot different than last year, don't you?!?!? So here are a few lap-band related (and not) things that I am thankful for, going into the holidays...
- That this year, I can no longer over eat by multiple plates...
- That I can enjoy a taste of everything without feeling overly guilty about eating things I shouldn't be...
- That even if I DO eat a few bites too much, my band will do its job and remind me to stop!
- As long as I wear pants that fit correctly to dinner, I won't have to undo the button on them...
- That I have had such a good experience these last 9 months with this tool... and that I am really excited about getting healthy!
- That there is a chance, that if I eat my protein first, I might just be able to lose weight over the holidays!
- That I have such an amazing support network of family and friends
- That I live in a country that is free
OK - enough for now... back to work and wishing everyone in the US a wonderful Thanksgiving-to-be!

Happy Thanksgiving, Sarah! I like this list!!!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING Sarah! I was in the middle of making a list like this, [of things im thankful for] for my blog when I saw yours! I hope you have a great Turkey day!! [make sure its not to dry or it will get stuck! LOL]
Sarah, man...you are so good at reminding me of things sometimes. Here is an example. This thanksgiving day I may eat MORE then I do on a normal "banded" day, but it will be nowhere NEAR what I ate last year! I might eat one plate this year...but not three!
Thanksgiving is just going to be strange!!! I will admit, I was a stuffingaholic. Will be interesting to see if I can handle a bite of it this year!! Happy Thanksgiving!!
I'm starting to wish we had Thanksgiving here in Oz - there seems to be so much hype for you guys over it. Oh well, I will live vicariously through you all lol. Love the turkey joke too.. very funny!! Have a lovely TG.. xxx
Happy Turkey Day to you too Sarah. You have a great singing voice!
Happy Thanksgiving, Sarah!! I am thankful to be sharing this road with you! :) Have a great holiday!
Happy Thanksgiving Sarah!
Good reminders-- It's only been about 4 months but I forget how much I used to be able to pack away! Thanks to the band that is drastically reduced now and that's truly something to be thankful for :-)
