    I think both you and @ms.sss probably have the right idea. Smaller desserts are probably a lot more appealing.

    What does the insurance wording say? “BMI of 40 or X with comorbidities Likely it is an either/or situation not necessarily both but if it’s not written clearly, contact them for the clarification.

  8. My first cheat meal was 4 months post op (with surgeon’s approval) now 6+ yrs post op all meals are cheat meals! Joking! Maybe 10% now. But I’m a big fan of a long term sustainable diet that you can adjust as needed. So alternate between strict and relaxed however I still prioritize protein.

    My daughter’s High School graduation cake. After the party we threw away 1/2 of it instead of eating everything. I’m noticing that cake isn’t a big thing with anyone I know anymore. Anyone else noticed desserts are being left uneaten?

    Breakfast bagel: This keto bagel was drier than I remember so it took me 35 mins to eat it. I usually don’t eat anything for that long (I give up from boredom) but I wanted to actually eat a real meal at an appropriate time today. Last night my BF asked if I was on my cycle already because I was eating jalapeño kettle chips at 11pm 🤣. The problem was I delayed breakfast to 2pm because I was busy and it extended my meals late into the night… so no more of that!

    I hope your recovery is going smoothly and the craziness of recent will become a footnote in a long and wonderful life ❤️

    This makes me want soup even though it’s spring/summer in the northern hemisphere 😩

    Breakfast sandwich (eggs and vegan sausage). I only ate 75% of it, then began to feel nauseous. Idk if it was the eggs (can’t always handle them) or the high fat macros , hormones or what but I won’t repeat this meal anytime soon.

    Boho vibe outfit for a family gathering. The dress was new but the breezy tassel shawl I bought (impulsively) about a year ago and is easily one of my favorite accessories.

    Cholesterol

    Am I your brother? joking My levels have remained the same (low-normal but I don’t have a lot of fat in my daily diet except 1-2 weeks per year) I not sure of the metrics used to measure in Australia? Is 5.7 very elevated? What would be optimal?

    I’m excited for this season as the love story is one we don’t often see: portly, plump, endowed women being romantically courted. How was it? Netflix has spoiled me, I can’t watch single episodes or partial seasons of shows. I need to binge watch or I lose interest. I love love love period shows, almost any period except the 1970-80’s (idk why).

    I also don’t eat salad dressing! I feel like the toppings I add are usually wet enough and I don’t like many salad dressing flavors/consistencies.
