I had my first Thanksgiving dinner yesterday. I actually did okay. I probably ate too little -- because I didn't want to take a chance of overeating (and being sick). I kept myself busy by jumping up and getting things that people needed too.

(I did eat again when I got home -- but well within in caloric limit and added protein)

Keep up what you've been doing -- and you will be fine! Happy Thanksgiving!

My first holiday after surgery too! And on the exact day I can start on "real" food too! Just gotta take it slow, chew well and follow the rules, right? :)
