I feel ya! Up at 2:20 this am. It certainly messes with my energy level.

Anyone else have a hard time eating protein separately? It's fine if you have a separate protein, but a lot of time my recipes require a blending of flavors ala lobster club salad I had last night. It's meant to be eaten together! I still do it 'cause it's hard to take small bites if you have a lot of ingredients to put together, but I sometimes miss taking bites of lots of flavors that marry together at the same time. I really missed big bites last night!

So sorry to hear about your complications, Marry. That sucks.

You all look great!

I would compare food addiction to alcohol or drug addiction. I think being honest about using food to mask feelings is key. That being said, the two addictions are different in that one can abstain from drugs and alcohol but obviously not from food. ...one can only abstain from injurious eating behavior. I think wls can be a great tool to learn to do that. But it only works if you work it.

I had severe esophogeal spasms in 2000. They actually gave me nitroglygerin and it stopped the spasms..it does drop your blood pressure and gives you headaches ...have they checked to make sure it's not your heart?

Stuffed peppers

Wow! You look great! Glad to see wls surgery success stories! You're an inspiration! Hope you find some veterens.

I would definitely either bring protein shakes for the way...I went on a trip that was 8 hours each way and it was hard to get in protein.

I wouldn't worry if you've researched your Dr. They are all over the place concerning requirements. If you trust your doctor, I wouldn't worry.
