Thanks I've had big arms all my life now they look normal ????

I make my own with turkey love it. I make my husband's with red pepper flakes he calls it crack he can't leave it alone. Were both sleeved so it makes a GREAT way to get protein.

Today is my 1 year surgiversary this year has gone by so fast been a few hurdles but I'm so happy with my sleeve. I would do it all over again in a heart beat. Have about 7# to my goal. Dr said was good where I'm at but would like a few to play with. Coming off slow now but very HAPPY with what I have accomplished in a year. [ATTACH]20621[/ATTACH]

We are both each others coachs . Its been a wonderful ride we are both down 100# love our sleeves. It really helps that were both so close on surgery dates we both said we wish we did it sooner.

Went to Walmart yesterday and found basil and sundried tomato caned chicken took about 1/4 of the can and then added a basil and sundried tomato cheese stick cut up to it micrwaved for 80 sec. Then put on a larger wonton wraper and rolled up wow was it good. They also have lemon pepper caned chicken might try that next. Next time going to try them in oven to get a little crunch to the wrap. Sent from my EVO using VST

Tried the pizza tonight from food.com was very good used sun dried tomato alfrado sauce instead of pizza sauce. Added mushrooms, Turkey bacon crumbles, little pepperoni will defelenty make again. My daughter who is very finicky loved it on hers just added pizza sauce and pepperoni. With it also made cauliflower bread sticks also very good. Sent from my EVO using VST

Just tried the baked ricotta wow was fantastic. Instead of the marinara sauce I used sun dried tomato alfrado sauce less calories and good. Was afraid to use marinara sauce cause I get heartburn so easy. Would definitely make again. Sent from my EVO using VST
