Christmas Dinner Photos

This is on a single portion lasagne dish - not as deep as it looks!! Nothing was layered on it. I ate half the (gluten free) Yorkshire pudding, one potato, 2/3 of the veg and half the meat

Oh you cant beat a yorkshire pudding

Oh I fancy the sound of a Minnie Mouse bowl. My muller rice yoghurt lot which I eat out of is getting a bit shabby looking. Really must look for a tiny bowl or a really small plate with sides

The best bit is one year on and i still cant eat anything! My xmas dinner this year will be one potato and a mini sausage with bacon round it and that will be me done. I will take a photo again. God was year i ate a few mouthfuls and threw it up, it was awful. Christmas is certainly not much fun when you cant gorge on xmas dinner. I totally miss food.

yea true but at the same time i bet you don't miss being fat more !? yesterday evening i had a weak moment and managed to pull myself out of it , the cravings are short and temporary being fat is all day everyday , but the problem with christmas is its constantly in our faces and for a whole month!!! so annoying! going to try and keep healthy as when its all done and over i won't feel so shameful lol !
but bless you i can imagine your frustration and although i consider myself to be well versed on surgery and have accepted this , i think when i can't physically eat what i mentally want it'll be hard and all though I'm 'prepared' i think reality is different ?
I've ordered a quorn family roast for christmas , with some low carb gravy it is delicious xx

Before After No potatoes or Yorkshire puddings this year to keep the carb intake as low as possible. I just wouldn't be able to manage them anyway.

Oh that looks amazing!!! I just had two roast potatoes with loads of gravy to make them mushy!! Didnt bother with a photo of that!!
I did have a great day though x

Didn't manage it all, 2 years post bypass

I did post this on my own diary.. But thought i should share it here too. Ate everything but one potato.

Didn't take a photo as I dived right in! My dinner fitted in one of those saucer size Yorkshire puddings. It was freakin well lush! Didn't eat it all mind.. but a lil while after I had Christmas pudding and clotted cream, then 2 stuffing balls with gravy and then sweets lol Mmm XP x

My christmas dinner was a M+S fish pie...and it was lovely..
I've had fish pie for the past 5 years for my christmas dinner since my surgery.
There's no worse feeling than a EVIL sprout being stuck and chest pain for the rest of the day!

Mine was a normal sized christmas dinner but no seconds - at almost 4 years I can usually manage a small adult portion (which is the aim). Didn't take a pic tho sadly.
