How did surgery go???

How was your trip???

How long ago as your surgery and what did you have done? (Sleeve, RNY ??)

I was shocked that a veggie patty would lay like a brick in my sleeve but YIKES it did......never again...veganism is not for me! lol

Good for you! Congratulations on making the choice to change your life! Good for you! Congratulations on making the choice to change your life!

I can eat spicy but I take a daily PPI to counter act it. I just finished lunch which was a chicken jalapeño sausage dipped in Frank's Red hot and I'm all good!

I am loving scallops! Per myfitnesspal one large scallop its 35 calories and 5 grams of Protein. They are beautiful little chunks of protein and a blank canvas so you can pair them with so many flavors! My current favorite is garlic and then I use Chardonnay to deglaze the pan and make a light sauce ..... What's your favorite way to make scallops ?

I have a large Italian family both mine and my partners so two large Italian families to deal with and I had surgery and told no one except for my partner. No one has guessed because I spread the word that I was seeing a nutritionist and turning a new leaf. It can be done ! [emoji2]

Agreed! I splurged on j.crew for nicer wear but for every day I hit up Target for clothing I'm ok with shrinking out of and when I shrink out of the j.crew stuff......I will take everything to the tailor to be altered.

It does get much easier....I am 2 months out from surgery and the first few weeks I really missed chugging water but now I can chug if I want!

You look fabulous !

They are so easy make and I always buy the frozen ones.....I only grocery shop one day a week so fresh isn't really an option for me .

I agree! I have sent clothing to thredUp....they send you a postage paid bag, you fill it with clothing and they pay you....I have app credit for new clothing

Congratulations! I'm getting to the frustration point especially when I dress to go out and all of my nice clothing is too big and it makes me feel frumpy...... Hit the online j.crew sale this weekend to get some suitable clothing for going out because I can't take it anymore.....makes me feel yuk

Slacking on water and protein.....it out me into a stall and once I got serious about both I started to lose again and haven't stopped!

I should also say I can not deal with smoked cheeses or even worse goat cheeses. I can't handle to flavor and after taste of goat cheeses.....

I haven't gone to any thrift stores because they are not convenient for me but I love and always check out Target clearance racks

I'm shopping for the ice cream attachment for my kitchen aid mixer..I might make the strawberry into ice cream...maybe that will help lol

I love cheese! Extra sharp cheddar is always in the fridge and lately we have been addicted to jalapeño Monterey Jack. Anyone tried moon cheese? I get it at Starbucks and it's like freeze dried crunchy cheese..IT IS AMAZING !!!

I can't wait to try them but I'm a Coatco girl not Sams so I might have to wait. I prefer chocolate, vanilla is ok and strawberry is my absolute least favorite but I'm drinking them because I bought an entire case. But it's my last case of strawberry....lol I'm too stubborn to just throw them away lol

So I have been so excited because I am super close to the elusive Onderland !!! But my body thinks it's funny! Case in point.... Saturday- 201 Sunday- 200.5 Monday- 200.3 Tuesday- 200.0 Lol it's really making me sweat it out! Come on Onderland! Anyone else sweating it out super close to an elusive weight ??

Congratulations!!!

I realized that every night when I make dinner I make my dinner plate look "pretty" and well balanced. Tonight we had grilled chicken tenderloins and grilled carrots. I know I will not eat the carrots, I'm only 6 weeks out from surgery and will barely get through 3-4oz of my Protein much less veggies. Yet, every night I put a teaspoon of veggies on my plate to make it look like a "proper meal". Anyone else do this or am I the only crazy one? lol

That is awesome!!
