Amazing

That smile says it all!

VSG is just one weapon in your armory. You may need several to help you in this battle as VSG cannot always be guaranteed to curb eating, change taste preferences and definitely not modify behaviors that are rooted in other causes. Reach out to your team and ask if there are support groups you can attend even prior to surgery to see what others are doing to win the war.

Yes no eating/drinking: 30 min before each alternate session 30 min duration Max for eating sessions 30 mins after each alternate session This is for anything that is not a pure liquid/liquids as a solid Otherwise you can have those without breaks (water, protein shake, broth, popsicle, jello, milk, tea, etc.) Touch base with your team for additional clarity

World War Z or Zombieland lol

34, never even considered it before I did it.

Time to Catfish! Lol

Hahaha, I brush my teeth after also

No way! Lol sounds like my yogurt but I use frozen Blueberries, french vanilla syrup non fat Greek yogurt, raisins, peanuts, chia and hempseed .

Empty because it's new lol, my old one next to it is coffee

I've noticed that people assume all kinds of things about me now. I've mentioned needing to walk to a place because I have walked long distance in a few days, and people assume it's specifically for lossing more weight. I have to explain the benefits of walking beyond weight loss for anyone to be satisfied with my reasons. So disturbing. People constantly tell me now that I don't need to lose more weight. Many don't know I had WLS and must be thinking I'm trying really hard. I'm not. I think people assume I have a new found eating disorder. Not present. Debatable but i'm not specifically actively trying for more weight loss (fat loss, muscle growth yes), I'm just letting my body find it's range. I comfortable where I am, I can stay here or go lower ,my body will pick but I'm not making an effort to stop lossing either. I think people are obsessed with my weight loss and think I am also. I'm not. It's so weird, it's all anyone around me wants to talk about. What assumptions have you found/do you believe are being made about you? Are they spot on or way off?

💯

Many don't know this about me but I'm a minimalist and a low/zero waste (goal) enthusiast So this is my latest baby from Starbucks... This felt like the right thread to place it since I spend the majority of the day drinking teas.

Research shows a strong correlation between proper hydration and fat loss https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4901052/

Congrats!!!! This is great!

Ok current weight 161.4 went passed my doctor's office and decided to pop in for a weight since the next time would be October. Not surprised I had tons of salty foods and it will be that time of the month soon. But considering that I had cheesecake and cookies and whatever else I wanted all labor day weekend during non fasting hours, albeit in small amounts, not bad...

Dammit.

Thanks so much !

Thanks!!!!

Thank you, thank you!

It's turkey but you can't tell the amount by the way it's folded, it's roughly 2.75 servings (bird's-eye view is deceiving)

So beforethe end of my fast I tried to eat some yogurt, had about 1/8th a cup before I realized that it had expired while I was away. Couldn't tell but tossed it anyway, then I had a piece of turkey jerky, nuts and seaweed snacks. Let's call that another 500cals lol I like to overshoot.

Hehehe always a love fest Everyone is doing so well!!!

Lol hahaha, everyone will behave
