Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass    | HEY JERRY for me the holidays come easier being i just cant eat the protions i used to and i follow my posted 3 bite rule: WHEN the holiday season comes and when faced with foods we really shouldn't eat...sweet potato casserole, grandma's stuffing or the desserts calling our name...try to focus on the three bite rule to get through the holiday. The First Bite is to get a good taste. The Second Bite is to verify it was as good as we thought it would be. The Third Bite is the LAST BITE, so savour it. GOOD LUCK and also plan ahead to be prepared! MAKE sure there are plenty of protein snacks on hand for you !!!

| Lisa, I love it! That's a great idea! Hello Jerry! Welcome! You will find a lot of support here, as well as great info! I'm only 4 months post op and I have wondered about the holidays as well. I think we have all gotten into the shape we are in (or WAS in) because we LOVE to eat! I do believe, however, that it might not be as hard as I first imagined. I can eat, I just can't eat a LOT! I try to make wise choices and will continue to do that even over the holidays, but I'm not going to beat myself up if I "fall off the wagon"! We just get up, dust off, and try again. I love the 3 bite rule!

| Super Moderator | It's not like you MUST NOT eat, it is more like eat wisely and in moderation. Enjoy the special holiday foods, that is part of what memories are made of, but just make sure you aren't oblivious to everything other than food, but rather, take food as that enjoyable spice that makes theyou aware of the people you are with and the conversation fun and flowing. If the people you are with are a chore to be with, take a read of Don't be a Freakin' Turkey written by CraigT, the host of this site. It may give you a plan of action line.
