Mrs.RRn

Quest bars are my favorite. I use them as a meal replacement. They have lots of flavors.

@@cheryl2586 I never thought an iguana could be cute-- adorable!

I bring a chocolate chip protein bar to the movies--- just like candy.

So, I now know where Mogadishu is and the size of Ryan G's ears (mmm). This has been a very informative thread.

I didn't start eating salads until just recently (and only a bite or two). @ 9 mos out.

I feel this everyday. I think it frustrates my husband more than anything. (Poor man)

Let's just start a Madam Reverie forum? Put it Somewhere between Rants & Raves & The Powder Room??

Envy.... Probably so. It's funny how the mean highschool girls end up being mean women. lol

The Gladiator and Lean 1 are probably the best choices there. Never get more than a 20 oz and always use it as a meal replacement. Far too many calories to be a snack.

I bought a bright coral swimsuit yesterday. I chose this bc I would've always bought black before... Not necessarily bc I love black, but It would've been the only thing in my size. I love The options I have now! ..Especially jewelry & watches. My wrists & fingers were so large before, I could have never just picked up a piece of jewelry and have it fit.

This was my fav response: "I totally understand & agree that everyone is aloud their own opinion so with that said here's mine.... The "reason" someone says they had wls is irrelevant as long as they had it by their own free will & for their own reasons, the fact that they got healthy is what should matter. People tell others especially non wls others all kinds of reasons (that may not always be true) that they feel will be excepted to help others justify their decision because of comments like this of the fear of "letting a friend or love one down" BC they don't fully understand how hard it is to be overweight or any negative responsive to something that was supposed to be a positive life changing event for them. We ALL go through our own struggles & the fact is that no matter the details of why we do what we do to fix those things as long as we are happy & can live with the results of our decisions is all that matters. I'm truly sorry u were crushed but to hopefully help u maybe understand ur friends life changing decision to add years to their life & to enjoy a healthier way of life by having surgery go google what they had to go through after surgery & have to deal with everyday to maintain that lifestyle. Like it was said in a pervious comment surgery is just a jump start for a better life. & thankfully a healthier way than diet pills, adderall, starvation, or throwing up which is the route many take in private BC wls still has such a negative stigma about it. I feel bad for anyone that looks at me or my weightless different due to how I got that way BC besides them having no clue about the struggles I have & still face they are missing out on sooo many other great positive parts of my life that have happen thanks to my weight loss." I no one actually put a negative comment about wls. Wow.

It fades from brown to yellow. Haha

Like I said, I never posted anything on FB about surgery so I was SUPER nervous!!! But too hurt not to say anything.

This was my actual response: "As a wls patient myself, I can tell you it's not an easy lifestyle- well, maybe not the way I chose to live. There are a lot of wls patients walking around fat bc they don't change. I measure/ weigh every piece of food that goes into my body. I eat a very restricted diet I workout everyday- sometimes up to 3 hours a day... Surgery is just a tool. Don't be too crushed. It's about becoming healthy to hopefully have a healthy family one day. " And others posted some really amazing comments after me. I was just thrilled. @@Madam Reverie perhaps BITE ME would've been better. LOL

But I'm really surprised by all the pro wls comments it provoked. I feel really supported. LOVE it.

Luckily, if we are eating as we should, this shouldn't be an issue. ... Put down that cupcake...

Guys, we are getting off-topic here.... I believe we were talking about me... @@LipstickLady, yes, please do tell!

Why can't you go somewhere else for follow ups?? You wouldn't choose a primary doc you didn't like, so don't choose a surgeon to follow up w/ that you don't like

How does Mrs.RRn change a light bulb? She just holds it in the air and the world revolves around her! bwhaaaa.jpg Is there any other way???

@ Her name is CoCo. She's a newborn (2014). RS also. I love her. She looks mean in this pic, but she doesn't bite. PS : Ryan G... Yum.

Everyone's all like... Look at my improved blood glucose levels, check out this research data, carbs vs protein. And I'm all like.... Look at my new Camaro! LOL

I don't LOVE the repetitive questions... But we were all there once. Ok, make us a topic list. lol Honestly, all my posts are about me because, well, I am my favorite subject.
