I don't have extra skin! I've been going to the gym building mussels! You're funny. LOOKING.

Me. This bee-yotch is talking about ME. She loves me now, though. She really really does.Whether she likes it ir not. Sent from my SM-G930P using the BariatricPal App I mean, look at me with my loose skin and shitty family. How can you not???

Wait! I'm not even part of this thread!!! You're a part of EVERY thread, whether you want to be, or not. Lmao Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App RIIIIIIGHT!??!! And I suspect you didn't even like me much when you first came here. I grew on you. Like mold. #sorrynotsorry

Um, you started it. Thanks for the laughs tonight you guys! Seriously, my night isn't going so great, finding this was gold(fish). I made you a taco.

Whuuuuuuu!?!?! Is that your "check"? Did you just "drop the mic", too? SNORT!!!! Nope. I still don't feel like a whiskery fish, but I'm waiting anxiously. And your pics??

Oh. And I don't measure things like spinach, broccoli, and other fibrous, non carby veggies because TO ME, they really don't count.

It's pretty impossible logically to measure your food post chew but you are absolutely right to be confused on how to measure your food. A cup of popcorn does not equal a cup of chopped steak by any means. I learned real fast to skip the cups and go straight for weight. I measure my food in ounces. It's much more reflective of my actual intake. At 3 years and 5 months post op, I am kind of far out and an "expert" on dieting, as I suspect most of us are, so I don't measure everything any more. I DO however measure out my portions for a few days every couple of weeks to keep myself on track. It's funny how an eyeballed ounce turns into an ounce and a half and then two over time. Do your best most of the time and check yourself every so often just to make sure you aren't inflating your portions. It's a good habit. IN MY OPINION.

Bento boxes are where it's at for leftovers, too!

I've only been here for about 6 months, and I'm only 3 months post-op, but you're really on the wrong track here. When September is 6 months in your rearview mirror and you've actively participated, do me a favor and revisit this topic. I can promise you your attitude will change. There is a small handful of dedicated, seasoned and well-informed veterans on this site who tirelessly answer the SAME 20 QUESTIONS over and over and over and over and over again. They VOLUNTEER to do this. Willingly give up their own time to try to help the rest of us. So when one of them starts a thread about what she will/won't answer questions about, it's long overdue and they don't need a 2 or 3 week member, still pre-op, telling them what they should or shouldn't do. I was not a huge fan of some of the vets when I first arrived, but that's completely changed as I observe the rank stupidity they're willing to deal with day after day, solely to ensure that anyone reading doesn't take any of the rank stupidity to heart. Try dealing with the vets as carefully as you'd deal with the newbs...they deserve that and more, from all of us. Nah...vets suck. They need to leave.

You HAD to bring in the bananas. What's next? Pooping staples?

ME TOO. It's caught me hook, line and sinker!

Now I'm just commenting for the halibut.

It's kind of a fishy story. I think everyone just needs to clam down...

(Can I drop a "Master Baiter" joke yet? Wait...speaking of master baiters... where's @@Dub ?)

Yes. You are absolutely correct. I'd suggest listening to the girl who is eating Swedish Fish at 17 days post op. They are "soft", right?

@@LPNAshley You're sweet. XXOO

That is disgusting. NO FREAKING WAY.

*to say anything else to... You can't call me stupid and have simple grammatical errors in the same sentence.

Hold on. Using the decoder again. I might have to use the magic 8 ball on the one. Nope, regular lotto. Now I'm not sure if its regular, mega or powerball. So many unanswered questions. Sent from my SM-G930P using the BariatricPal App DAAAAANGIIIIITTTTTTTTTT!!
