Nice, long power walk with a friend. It feels so good to walk for about an hour and a half and end up drenching in sweat!

5 mile walk with lunges along the way

Feeling so much better. For now will just avoid pineapple all together.

Just updating my weight. It's been awhile. I was 258 at surgery time. I am 171 today! Yippie! I feel so great and I'm able to do so much of the activities I enjoy... Hiking, basketball, paddling, volleyball!

I don't see anything wrong with having a drink or two once in awhile. I like a top shelf vodka on ice with a lime. I've also had a glass of wine here and there. I always drink lots of water. Have fun. I would avoid mixers... They can be loaded with sugars.

Glad you are feeling better. Here's to a fast recovery.

Thought some cold pineapple on a hot day would be refreshing... Not so much. Worst cramping, dumping since surgery. It's crazy what our pouches decide they like and don't like. So far pineapple and cabbage have been the two things that really tore me up. Ouch... Go away tummy cramps!

Any news on this? I. Know Bariatic Advantage offers some of bees meals. I haven't used them yet, but I think once school starts back (I am a teacher), Hesse would be great for lunches. Good luck. Keep us posted.

All this crazy gain has really dampened my exercise routine! However, so grateful to have found a gym that I can use

Welcome, Mary. How has everything one for you?

Unjury chocolate splendor. Mix with skim milk or almond milk. Yum.

I'm a big fan of unjury chocolate splendor. I have a shake every morning with skim milk. Sometimes I skip lunch and do another shake. I find this really helps when I hit a stall in my weight lose. I have the cheese flavor, but haven't used much of it. I put it on sans every now and then. I like the unflavored, too. I add that to all sorts of things to get extra Protein.
