  1. Disclaimer: I've never made any of those recipes. I would just eat a real piece of pie. When I eat a dessert since it's so rare I just get a SMALL piece and enjoy it. Maybe 2-4 bites is enough for me.
  2. And here's a more cake-like type to avoid crust.
  3. I don't know how they can call any of this "sugar free" pumpkin has naturally occurring sugar so it will never be sugar free.
  4. @@skinnyrita Some of mine did. I stopped taking vitamins all together 4 months ago so I had my surgeon check my labs last month and they were perfect. I'm not saying don't take them. Do what your surgeon says. I just stopped because they were making me feel worse than good. I have my labs checked regularly so I can keep a check on them.
  5. @@AvaFern Girl, I jus got rid of a TON of scrubs. I gave away around 30 pieces. I did that so it would deter me from gaining weight. Scrubs aren't cheap and going to work naked is frowned upon so......no excuses!
  6. @@Dub I never cheated...ever, but when night came the zzzquil came out so I wouldn't be up at night eating!

    Hummus and ?

    I make it homemade and eat it with carrot chips (not chips, carrots that are cut flat)
  10. I am a sleeper too, I could literally stay in bed all day if my kids would just leave me the hell alone! I am especially tired after I eat now.
  11. Water does NOT make me full, it makes me hungry!!! I would appreciate it if people would stop telling me that nonsense! ;)

      my nut said to have a spoonful of peanut butter, it not only has good protein and is decent in fats, its been proven to help burn a lil more fat while sleeping. I did it last night and no tummy rumbles! allergic to peanut butter? I have no clue then!

      That's a great tip @Veronica Page, I will def try that too. For me I have found that drinking a protein shake before bed helps me not feel like I'm starving when I awake.

  13. Well I can see how YOUR decisions about YOUR life could really be a hard decision for her, it must be a real burden for her to have to make that decision, go through the process, the surgery, recovery, learn a new lifestyle, deal with being re-hospitalized...ect. How dare you inconvenience her life in such a dramatic way! You should be ashamed of yourself for making a hard life long decision like that!!! You would almost think it was YOUR own life you were living for?! Crazy!! I think you should call her up and insist she not pay that hospital bill!!! In the meantime you focus on yourself, if she's a real friend she will see that none of the above is really any of her actual business so she doesn't need to put her snaky two cents in. She just needs to take a step back into friend zone, your grown and they operated on your stomach not your brain. You still have that to make your own life decisions with.

  17. Dang it I wish I could help you. My husband brought me home a total gym blaze and I sold it on Craigslist two weeks later. It's big and It was too much for me to figure out. You could try to look up some videos on YouTube!

    @@OKCPirate lol! These kids better hide the undergarments. Maybe this will give the motivation to wash, dry AND fold their own crap!!
  19. @@Dub Yay! I think the sleeve is pretty fabulous but I'm a bit partial. I've lost more than my girlfriend who had GB but we are all different. I don't take any vitamins or anything and my labs are perfect! She was told she will have to take vitamins for life. Both procedures will work if you do your part. I don't discriminate. I also let my surgeon tell we what he felt was best for me. I went in thinking GB on the first visit but he said no. I didn't even know what a sleeve was so I was a little aggravated and stared some major research. I'm glad I trusted is opinion because I feel like it was perfect for me. Can't wait until you're on the other side with us "losers".
