But you could totally prep smoothies freezer bags, I do it in the summer so my kids can just add water to the blender and the contents of the Ziploc and not bother me about knives... 😎 -

I haven't bought a whole fresh pineapple in a while (I usually buy frozen fruit- lasts/lazy) I bet it would be a lot better! IDK about the macros because it would vary by size and weight of the amount you use... Oh. So. Lazy... 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 -

Canned, left over from when my kids wanted to make pineapple upside down cake and never did lol, maybe next I will move on to the peaches I bought to make peach crisp for a friend (but never happened lol) Trying to be a good little minimalist and use everything I buy before I buy new things... -

I used exactly 1 ring of pineapple 30 cals/ 7.5 carb/6.5 sugar in 18 oz of water ( with other stuff of course) -
The only problem with this logic is the you *might* be possibly teetering close to the edge of recurrence of health issues at that range. But I'm not a doctor. What does your team think? Instead of BMI or a certain look, maybe check out what weight range puts you out of the path of XYZ. (Unsolicited advice, I know. Im Sorry. I used to think I had a certain body type as an AA that I'm finding out I don't have, possible never did. So I'm no longer relying solely on a certain look as an indicator of health. YMMV 😊)

I’m SCARED!! Stalling after 1 month Post-op?!?
GreenTealael replied to TakingBackChrissy's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Stalls, Everyone's doing them... You should too. joking. I stalled at 1 month out for about a month. It happens. If your habits are good don't stress. Some of us stall often, our bodies like to take little breaks. It's cool, because it's a marathon not a race. And it all adds up in the end. -

Setting HEALTHY & REALISTIC goals
GreenTealael replied to AshMarie794's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
My team was (still is) super relaxed about end goals if you are not presenting with red flags to them. They never really gave me one at the start of my journey. We discussed me getting healthy as the goal and focused on that. So when I became really active on BP I forgot about that and started going crazy a little setting up goals based on mostly fear of regain, all the what ifs, etc. Then spoke with my team and tried to convince them I needed to be 120lbs so when I regain I will be at my goal, they looked dumbfounded and said "you're planning your regain? I said everyone regains, right? They were like: No. It's not like you necessarily have to plan for, it you have to plan against it." So I decided to trust what they wanted for me. A healthy range that my body will chose without a lot of struggle. I suspect I'm beginning to crossover to maintenance, so now I will begin that journey. I say first and foremost chase your personal goals (I had none lol), but also trust your team and body to steer you right. That was long in the tooth, sheesh Sorry. -
Since the pureed stage.

GreenTealael replied to FluffyChix's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
Thanks!!! Time to start considering/working on my second year goals... I think I should be fine for maintenance, I'm not going to start adding things into my diet that weren't already there, and IF is a serious tool. I'm going to continue working on BF and muscle %, toning, flexibility, etc. Just not actively trying to lose more. -

I'm still here too!!! Nothing to report, oh I am up to 157 (cycle soon, expected) still IF-ing except the weekend. The usual... But I think I'm in maintenance now so you won't be hearing weight loss related updates (not that there were many lol) it's just lifestyle for me now. -

You should absolutely confront your team in this professional critique if you believe they neglected you. -
