I had no idea how much one could love a dog until I get this one as an adult. She's my baby! Sent from my iPhone using VST

EVERYTIME either my husband or I get up from the table with a plate, Gracie knows she's getting fed so she follows us into the kitchen immediately. The few times we actually finish our food, she looks at us balefully and pathetically.

Melatonin's not working? New studies showing melatonin isn't just helpful for sleeping, it's also helpful in preventing alzheimers and other brain function.

Thanks for the tip. That should be easy enough to find.

Well maybe that was for the best, you never know. A friend of mine did it, and she waxed herself! I mean she did it on her own! Can you imagine how painful that must have been?? So anyway she does it....and it SO freaked her husband out that he pretty much couldn't get it up that night Not QUITE the effect she'd been going for Hey when you are post op, this can be one of your NSVs! I hope your husband appreciated your efforts.

Ooh I like this one because it's a four for one. 5. I can have popcorn even if it a slider 6.. I eat and drink together all the time and nothing bad happens to me 7. All calories are equal. I can have milk duds instead of Protein 8. Help! I broke my sleeve! Yeah I know I'm being bitchy today I'll stop now

Old thread but I just read it and it was very enlightening. I teeter between not knowing why I weighed as much as I did, and believing it was too much sugar, even though my overall calories were not high enough to justify my weight. This theory bolsters my belief. I was def insulin resistant so maybe I was right when I thought calorie math was a bunch of BS for me. It does make me question how I might have done had I followed my current hi-Protein low-carb diet before ever getting sleeved? Maybe that's all I had needed but had refused to do?

I got hungry after your Oreo post! I had to unfollow it because it made me crave a cookie. Sigh. There's always going to be this struggle, isn't there?

You're already cleared to walk? For some reason I thought it would be longer before that would be okay.

Gah you and me both. I'd rather have flaming bamboo shoots stuck under my nails. If it's not books, electronics or bath products, I'm not interested in shopping for it.

Thank you thank you thank you!!

Welcome to my world! I'm writing this as I am on a plane bound for SLC tonight. i will be working all day and flying back tomorrow night and will fly out again Saturday morning. Day started early so I was able to eat eggs at home, coffee Protein shake on the way to a client meeting, Quest bar at the airport, 1 oz of cheese from the "protein box" I bought on the plane (the one with very little protein), and will probably eat the dried edamame I'm carrying it's me once I land at 9 pm. I will have walked 2 miles by the time the day is over just running from one place to another and that will have to do for my exercise today. I have some Jerky that I may have to nom if I don't make my protein today, and I bought stuff to drink at the airport. I also have one packer of Protein powder that I will sweet talk a barista at Starbucks into making for me at some point I thus trip. You get used to planning ahead, carrying acceptable Snacks, and being utterly shameless about eating in the middle of meetings when NO ONE ELSE is eating! I often cook like a mad woman on the weekends and we eat that through most of the week,and rarely eat out more than once a week if I'm not traveling. I also know what I can eat at airports: Wendy's chili, the insides of any places sandwiches without bread, and SF geek yogurt. That's it really. So a lot more planning and forethought but totally doable.

LOVE the link!! Thank you.

Can I ask what people did about suits? I have suits for another 10-15 lbs down but then I'm out of my closet shopping options. I don't have to have insanely expensive ones, but they do need to be dressy looking jackets, blazers, skirts, pants, shells, etc. where can one find those cheaply? Add to that my expensive shoes don't even fit anymore. I don't know at what point I can say my shoe size has stopped dropping? So I'm hesitant to buy new shoes but I am stepping out of most of mine with each step. Any thoughts? OP I hope you don't think I'm hijacking your thread? If you do I can delete and ask in a new one

How many gms can you eat without it slowing you down?
