Just had my first gherkin today. My tummy was doing happy dance after that. Never was a fan of pickles prior to surgery. Taste buds are changing after surgery.

My feet have shrunk a whole shoe size. My work heels no longer fit. I will have to get a new shoe wardrobe in the very near future.

Pork jerky is only meat my tummy accepts happily. Two months and one week post surgery. I didn't like shrimp pre surgery. And that's the other protein I can have without tummy tantrums besides soft boiled eggs.

@@Babbs thanks for highlighting this. I agree 100%. And also, congrats on losing and maintaining.

I can't wait to do that!!! Congrats

Love this thread. Just this past weekend I was invited out on a date by a gentleman I met through work. We have been on friendly terms for months. I didn't say yes or no but I kind of said after I feel better. He took that well because he was aware that I have been on medical leave. I don't know if I will tell him what type of surgery I underwent. I think the best thing for me to do is to stay away from dating for a while until the new body and mind have adjusted and made friends with each other. I have had the most fun dating this past two summers. I am hoping for a even more fun filled dating life next summer.

Your tree is beautiful. Loving the color scheme. A tree trimming pajama party with friends sounds like a ton of fun!!!

I am lucky to have a roommate who is a very health conscious eater and supports my new dietary habits and lifestyle. When she learned about my dietary restrictions she offered to remove her few items of junk foods from the kitchen. I did buy some junk foods for my niece during her week long stay with me. All the leftovers got discarded after she left.

I'll call it a vacation... ???? Update on my decorating. Tree is work in progress right now.

It's not that I am not aware of the happenings around me. It's just as a sleeved individual I need ppl in the same boat as me to do stuff with. My regular group of friends and family always ends up with a house party with tons of food and drinks. I'm Trying to venture out a little away from my old lifestyle.

My friends are awesome and very supportive. But with my new lifestyle I want to do more new healthy activities than hang out with partying friends every weekend. I have never bowled in my life. Night time hiking sounds fun. Basketball games I would love to attend as the GSW are doing a phenomenal job!! I am actually trying not to meet any one new in the man department.

Definitely will look into hiking locally. I do daytime small 5-6 mile easy trails every so often with my sis. Never considered night time hikes.

I would love to start making and selling my pieces again. Had a very lucrative business going at an old job selling my craft on the side.

I'm not into theaters. A former colleague has been trying to get me into it for the past decade.

I'm in north Bay Area, California.

@@magtart got rid of tv four and half years ago and don't miss it at all. I love going to movies. I do stream Netflix on my laptop if I want to watch anything special. But I prefer to be out with people.

Congratulations!!!

I can't wait to put my tree up. ????

Perfect timing with the new movie coming out.

I used to put mines up after thanksgiving dinner. I love coming home to a decorated home.

I would love to drive by and look and listen to your light show. I would love to drive by and look and listen to your light show.
