I'm always 1200 or under Carbs 70 or under, protein 90 or higher sugar 25 or lower can't remember fats Nuts boost my calories up Evenings: I don't eat past 8-9 pm, drinking less tea and water (so I'm not up all night in the bathroom) Really the only change is the ton more fluids & fasting/delay. Crazy.

    The Thrill Is Gone

    LLysine is an essential amino acid, the recommended amount on the bottle I buy is 1000mg per day ask your team about interactions but I believe there are not any. I read research that said the typical diet is lacking in this AA anyway and I also researched Telogen Effluvium and WLS/ hair loss/ hair regrowth and the medical journals I came across had studies that saw promising results when it was included. Google it, actually I placed the links in another thread, hair loss by silly kitty, there are links to several different studies with different vitamin regimens. No major loss for me.

    Is this normal

    Hi there! I highly recommend nuts! They will raises your calories so quickly and you only need a few. Its crazy. Try cashews. And bananas if you can have fruits blend banana into your current protein shake. Instant boost to calories and carbs. Do you see a nutritionist at all?

    She contends that anyone who stays “too long” has no life and should move on and stop considering themselves a Bariatric patient 🤷🏼‍♀️ I'm still kinda torn myself if I will continue to consider myself a patient after a certain amount of time vs a person who had surgery

  14. I'm sure they are the type of people that have been doing this all their lives... Bad behaviors don't start at 32 Oh and I forgot they violated a clause in the Hippocratic oath "Into whatsoever houses I enter, I will enter to help the sick, and I will abstain from all intentional wrong-doing and harm, especially from abusing the bodies of man or woman, bond or free. And whatsoever I shall see or hear in the course of my profession, as well as outside my profession in my intercourse with men, if it be what should not be published abroad, I will never divulge, holding such things to be holy secrets."
  15. There are so many fields that have now enacted similar privacy and privileged acts to stop this type of nonsense, mandatory retraining now...

    Feeling Lost

    You can put the scale away for a bit and live your life like an exact number doesn't define your worth Most people don't know their exact FICO scores, IQs, insulin levels, Natural Gas meter readings , heart rate, poison control phone number or national deficit  and they can remain happy from day to day...
