    Sooooo Bariatric Crap I Eat At My Desk is a go?
  3. My team considers plastics when you stop losing, usually after your 1 yr follow up with surgeon you ask about it. Why did you cancel your follow up? Do you think didn't lose enough? There are other things to discuss at the follow up like blood work, which is more critical than goal weight...

    Post Op Medical Care

    Your primary should always know at the very least for emergency purposes Primary follow up visit to reveal procedure and request additional support/testing: 2 week after surgery Blood work every 3 months Nutritionist first time transitioning to a new food phase then as needed Psychologist as needed (only you really know this) Congratulations!

    Can I color my hair?

    You could color your hair and maybe skate by the hairloss phase unaffected, but if hairloss is a concern for you, you may want to ask about the dye (severity of damage to your hair) to anticipate what you are risking

    Sleeve vs bypass

    IMHO If I were you and not really confident (sorry but that line sounds you're already planning for failure) I would go with the bypass, and just forget about a future surgery possibility. Take care of it all now in one shot.

    What is the bun made from?
  8. Mine are 20 yrs old so I was definitely worried about losing them so I started doing a ton of research and found research about Telogen Effluvium and LLysine so I started supplementing with that very early on. I've only had very very very minor thinning but no losses. I also went super low manipulation for about 8 months.

    Dating

    OMFG DUMPING while on a date. I just wanted to cry. Finally went on a date again . Met someone fantastic, decided on sushi, but most sushi will literally kill me so I had tempura vegetables and scallion pancakes. Dumping. I had to keep making odd excuses why I need to run to the restroom. They mostly centred around being super hydrated but I was very unfocused. I hope it wasn't super noticable, but I'm sure it was...😥 I hope he wants to go out again. I am just going to order water, coffee or tea.

    Oh no, sorry I just saw this! Water will vary depending upon batter consistency. Usually just enough to get it "loose" enough, ( adding tsp by tsp as needed) I don't know how else to describe it. The thinker the batter the fudgier , the thinner the more cake like... Sorry for the late response I take cyber Sabbaticals...

    Rectangular cake pan - looks like 6x12, maybe 15 mins at 400 (I was in a rush) so 20 at 375? or until the toothpick is clean.

    Food Before and After Photos

    Protein brownies (for breakfast subscriptions) 1 banana, 1 egg, 3tbsp chia seeds, 1tsp oil of your choice, 100g protein powder of your choice, 4 tbsp cacao powder, 2 tsp baking powder, dash of sugar sub of your choice, pinch of salt, *optional : nuts,1 tsp powdered psyllium husk (fiber) the key to making this behave like there is flour in it is blending the egg banana water mixture first, then add baking powder to the blender, lastly hand folding the rest of the ingredients in. 10 equal bars = 10 grams of protein (cals may vary depending on individual ingredients used) (Please no lawsuits for uneven protein distribution 😂)
