    To straw or not to straw

    I have ignored this rule since surgery when i asked about their effect on the outcome of my success and was told it was negligible. HOWEVER I have reverted to being straw less lately at almost 10 months out. I no longer need them like i thought i absolutely did especially since I just discovered the sippy lid at Starbucks for the cold cups.

    Food Before and After Photos

    Meal prepping again!!! I'm soooooo lazy in the summer when it comes to cooking, I can't even explain it. I'd rather eat something already made that i dont even want than make something else. So I decided to stop buying nuts and protein bars (like I need them anyways😓) and just meal prep nonstop. Basil BBQ glazed chicken Basically same recipe as before (Just the before cooking pic)

    Food Before and After Photos

    Missing kale salads lately, so I'm back to it. Kale, strawberry raisins, boiled egg, roasted chicken, peanuts, spices hazelnut oil, Bragg's liquid aminos, lemon juice This will be my only food choice for the day, its a big salad so I'll eat it until its done. Also moving to a proper 20:4 intermittent fasting routine should be interesting...

    WHY?

    WHY?

    It can happen at any time (immediately or years) but when it is not well controlled with medication or specifically tested for that your team will determine if you have develop a complication. Are you (still) on a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) ? Update your team if your reflux doesn't get better.

    WHY?

    Should we then , not view any of these posts as potential cross sections of bariatric societal norms in higher concentrations? Only extremes?

    Worlds longest stall

    I am going to suggest intermittent fasting. I am trying it and even though I did it incorrectly in the beginning it boosted my losing ability (i'm going to continue it on a stricter protocol and document it better) Its not really hard or a super long term commitment, google it and see what you think.

    WHY?

    Exactly my point. That seems pretty low to me! Certainly not high enough to suggest the procedure might be self sabotage/not choosing the best procedure. It was a question based on a few factors: some people honestly admitting to choosing VSG vs. RNY to specifically avoid dumping, the number of posts where people seems willing to break protocol earlier out seems to be mostly VSG patients, higher regain and revisions for non malfunction/medical reasons appears to be mostly from the VSG pool. BUT I HAVE NO PROBLEM BEING WRONG ABOUT THIS... its all observational/anecdotal.

  15. I don't know if its legal in Israel yet but have you tried medical marijuana as a appetite stimulant? Not marinol, but edibles. Totally different animal. Maybe a quick trip to Amsterdam?

    Try drinking teas with sugar substitutes (or warming your milk/protein supplements) you can drink as much sf fluids low calorie things as you want/ can tolerate. Warm things sit in you a little differently.
