2 months before VSG and 4 months after

Hmmm... IDK if I can agree with this and here's a meme why...

Nervous is normal. I think you'll do great with your positive perspective !

Thanks!

Oh no, I didn't think of it that way. Do you think it's insensitive ? Should I try to have them removed? [emoji22]

Yes all the traveling is already exhausting plus I'm forgetting to drink so I really have to be vigilant Woke up with a pre dehydration headache today

Yay for you !!!

Awwww thanks

But I'm beginning to think my NUT is rightly about focusing on hydration

More European protein options

Oh the stories I will tell... DM me

So last night I'm partying at a club in Rome and a lot of guys start dancing with me one after the other. I was really flattered by the attention for sure but the REAL victory is that I danced the entire night from techno to hip hop and everything in between. I was not even tired...next level [emoji356]

Definitely trying that when I return

Perhaps increase your fluid levels dramatically Some times hunger is mistaken for thirst. Then try to return to the basics like waiting 30 mins on between eating and drinking, reducing carbs and increasing protein.

Update: In Rome I found a farmacia and this is what they had in the way of protein I'll check another tomorrow

I'm 4 months out and it's a special occasion otherwise I wouldn't have touched it until maintenance personally

That's cruel lol

Fish or duck lips occur when someone male or female decides to enhance their natural pout for the pic by pursing the It's ridiculous unless it's cute No way to tell which side you're on until it's reviewed

Anyone else that did not suffer from emotional eating or food addiction? I see a lot of suggestions about changing the relationship to food, not eating out of comfort, getting control of sugar, etc. But I NEVER had these sorts of issues. It cannot always be a mental battle that causes obesity ...

It would seem as simple as that but it's not. I had 3 children in three years, no chance to lose the weight in between ,it just compounded. Easiest 100 lb gain ever. I worked on losing weight and became a vegan for a year loss some the transitioned into becoming a vegetarian for 10yrs but could not lose more because a large part of my diet was always carbs, although complex, still didn't help. Started to go carb free then lost weight but a surprise rare medical condition lead me to needing rapid weight loss or brain surgery. I chose to get sleeved first then brain surgery if all else fails. Never enslaved to food, already had a super strict diet (kosher) prior to being plant based so I NEVER ate fast food But you're right, I had to redefine my relationships with carbs because I just can't lose weight and eat them My post was to find out if other people perhaps like me, have trouble maintaining if food addiction is not a factor. But I appreciate all input.

First time buying this. Anyone else trying or tried it? It appears to be same amount of carbs and Protein as regular yogurt... So it seems harmless

Sounds like something you need to explain to your husband, you might come up with a healthy compromise. Sexually there are other things that can be done without the need for another person. But this path is entirely yours. But I myself would rather leave before I cheat.

Almost everyone stalls, I stall constantly But not weighing daily helps to forget the pressure. Maybe daily photos of progress can help

Why do you think you will be tempted to cheat?

You are so right, these board can make you feel inadequate sometimes, people are losing 80lbs in 27 days, swimming the English channel, climbing Everest, saving the polar ice caps all while eating -12grams of carbs but 1000 grams of protein a day And im just sitting here like Hi I had yogurt again and walked a mile I'm taking a break...
