Love these... Just thought I would share. They are a great chip made from beans! Some will enjoy some may not. But I love them! I can tolerate just about 5 chips with salsa home made. www.beanitos.com SW 267, May 16th 2013 CW 224, July 4th 2013 )

They are slider. I felt restriction when eating with salsa. So I just count out 5 and was full with that

Swimming and hair..not just any hair...black hair lol
Chivon32 replied to Dualstarr's topic in Fitness & Exercise
I don't do any prep on my hair lol... I just swim. And my hair is not damaged. I have always just swam and then washed and blow dried my hair after... Or I leave it wavy and add a curling hair gel. I keep my hair natural and sometimes have added weave. Nothing special. And I don't really use a lot of product. Just olive oil and that's it. And a good shampoo and conditioner. -

Chivon32 replied to Dualstarr's topic in Fitness & Exercise
This is funny to me as a black woman who grew up on the water... I always just swim.. Never have to cover my hair. Never did anything special for protection. Chlorine has never been a problem for my hair either. I just resume my normal hair care after getting it wet in the pool. I flat Iron my hair also. -
I have to laugh when looking at my pizza though because I was only able to tolerate about 4 small bites lol... Also my toppings were apple chicken low fat low sodium sausage, tomato, green pepper, garlic and cheese. My kids loved it... Hubby not so much a fan of cauliflower.
-
This was delish!!! 1 head of cauliflower rices in a processor then cooked. Drain the water from the cauliflower. Add 2 egg whites, low fat cheese and Italian seasonings. I used Pam cooking spray on my pizza stone. Spread out the cauliflower crust bake until golden brown. Remove from oven let cool add toppings and rebake! Enjoy!

Don't you just love the inequality?
Chivon32 replied to quackstitch's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes thank you!! I was sleeved May 16th 2013..i have Hasimoto's which can also make it hard to lose. I have lost 35 pounds so far due to having it under control along with surgery. But i can not say that for me my weight gain was all due to my thyroid....that's why i was just wondering how this surgery would still help you. Congrats and i am glad you have found a solution!! Best of luck!! -

Hashimoto's and the Sleeve
Chivon32 replied to SqueakyWheel&Ethyl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have Hasimoto's I was sleeved may 16th 2013. I was 263 date of surgery I am now 240. I think as long as your levels are under control you should be fine. -
