NSV... I go to pick my mother up today at her friends house and I am walking down the court and my mom didn't recognize it was me lol. Granted her friend hasn't seen me since in months but my mother is my neighbor and sees me almost daily!!! LOL. SHe actually told her friend I don't think thats her she's to skinny ROFL... ( and the comment was not in a negative way my mom is my biggest cheerleader no matter what) it made me chuckle

I use the bariatric advantage crystals I mix in my wTer in the morning they are good. It took a week to get used to but never horrible. Now it's like flavored water. I do the auto ship so I never run out. I also use the calcium chew from them in caramel it's like a little treat when I crave a lol something. A calcium chew it is n ur says 3 a day so it works out for me. Oh have tines changed sine being banded and all for the good. I aslo take 5000 mg of biotin

Refried beans with a lil taco sauce melted cheese or guacamole . (Burritoless BURRITO) . Or sour cream . Also ricotta with sauce and a little mozzarella n grated cheese Noodless lasagna

I'm on a scallop kick. They are 17 g of protein for 4 ounces and super quick to cook which is a great lunch takes no time to cook n I can warm in the microwave which is good cause I can not tolerate reheated food so lunch options need to be freshly made. N I have switched my snack to a protein bar I love the new direction bars from nyu no quest bars are good. I try to get as much protein as I can in. In a pinch ill drink an Isopure

Happy birthday
