Without unbottoning or unzipping. Hooray!

I felt like my insides had been moved around after mine. Happy healing!

Sounds delish!

Substitute agave or splenda for the honey. http://www.fitnessmagazine.com/workout/you-can-do-it/500-calorie-dinner-recipes/?page=2

Try with a cauliflower crust to cut out the carbs. http://www.livebetteramerica.com/recipes/white-bean-and-spinach-pizza/97ba34e4-70dd-4561-a3f2-87572c9bb1bb

Leave out the croutons. http://www.livebetteramerica.com/recipes/spinach-filled-fish-rolls/a3f3d044-c263-4418-b75f-7a4269be95de

Just add your favorite protein... http://www.livebetteramerica.com/recipes/curried-pumpkin-vegetable-soup/641442fa-5d50-49c4-a5b8-1195c725968d

I know we're all sick of Soup, but this sounds good. http://www.livebetteramerica.com/recipes/tomato-fennel-soup/16c06df6-3cc8-470f-8004-664f5c135d67

http://www.texanerin.com/2012/04/grain-free-peanut-butter-chocolate-chip.html I would use unsweetened dark chocolate (lots of anti-oxidants!) and either agave or Splenda. Worth a shot if you need a sweets fix.

Lucky you! Ha ha

Sorry. Insurance companies (including Medicare) suck. I hope you get an answer soon.

Protein. Just couldn't do it without the shakes.

How're you doing?

Wiping after I pee is definitely easier. Hope I didn't gross anyone out!

Hooray! Congratulations! I'm down 24% of my goal weight loss. It's hard to stay hopeful during the stalls, but with posts like yours it helps us keep going. Keep up the good work!

I try to walk for an hour on the treadmill, and I try to increase my speed, but every time I do I regret it. I went from 3 mph to 3.2 and ended up pulling a groin muscle and getting blisters. Exercise does not come easy to me. I've also tried yoga in the past, which I LOVED, but it was too hard on the arthritis in my knees. I'm gonna try it again after I lose another 20 lbs. They say the arthritis gets better when you're not carrying as much weight.

Wouldn't your doctor know? I thought their insurance people knew all about that stuff.

Tofu lasagna noodles (different, but an acceptable substitute, and very low cal!) 2 1/2 cups Marinara sauce Filling: 1 cup Shredded chicken (cooked) 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese 1 cup Mozzarella cheese 1 pint Ricotta cheese 10 oz Frozen Spinach (thawed and squeezed to remove moisture) 1 egg Mix all the filling ingredients together. Spoon 1/4 - 1/2 cup on the end of each noodle, roll up, place in baking dish sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Pour marinara sauce over the top. Cover and bake for 30 minutes. This would probably be great with delicious pesto sauce if the marinara upsets your stomach.
