    Sugar addict anyone?

    Reformed sugar addict here, I subbed out the majority of my sweetners with stevia, etc. I hard core read labels for sugar content and type. Chocolate must be at least 80% cacao, most desserts are diabetic friendly and I eat regular desserts only on special occasions in very small amounts. Never going back to sugar like before...
  4. Sick. Thanks NYC... But I did eat so here's photos, same thing for two days. Made soup from the original meal. Worked out. What's missing is yogurt, peanut butter and chocolate. I say at about 1000 cals both days. Endless amounts of fluids to try and cripple this bug. Going back to bed.
  5. 10 months post op, 160s.

    Sick (first time since surgery) because I spent time around too many sick people recently, totally worth it.

    But now I'm wondering what flu season will be like 😓

  8. Yes relax, Try and let food be just food now, with no control over you. Try to eat most things very moist and don't take unnecessary chances. Try to let go of those negative thoughts about the past and concentrate on the present and future

    For all who need a kick up the butt!

    I was getting this surgery by hook or by crook... I was not falling down at the mercy of insurance companies. I don't know who does but they should fight harder/smarter...

    Can we talk about staying hydrated?

    Early on it's harder but setting reminders and goals make it possible. All fluids count toward your hydration goal but water is superior and essential so you need the majority of it to be pure additive free water. I found drinking hot items like tea, coffee even broth went quicker than pure water making it easier to real the goal. I'm currently 10 months out and can drink like before surgery.

  17. I'm still fasting, currently drinking tea w/ stevia and light cream (modified IF) I may be getting lazy so I'm going to actually eat real meals later to prove I do... Stay tuned

    Sleeve vs Gastric Bypass

    I have the sleeve and did not want the bypass. But I also knew myself well enough to decifer how much I needed to lose, other medical issues that would interfere, if had food issues that would hinder my progress, reflux/GERD, if I'm willing to have a revision in the future for any reason, etc. I think these are important considerations. I chose the best surgery for me
