Great job. I used a C25K app a year ago and it really helped.

Every time i see less and less. You're rocking it.

That is correct about the percentage. I've lost almost 173 lbs since starting the journey and 132lbs since surgery day.

If and when anyone is ready for bread, I like Nature's Harvest Light. 80 calories for a 2 slices. I do open face and only use 1 slice. Here is the Nutrition info on 1 slice. It tastes good and gets the job done. Don't make it part of every meal. Personally a loaf lasts me quite some time as I have 2 maybe 3 slices throughout the week.

My nutritionist recommends toasting a slice and making open face sandwiches. as long as you are good to go on more solid foods avocado toast should be fine. She recommends toasting as it decreases the glycemic index.👍

Sorry I just noticed this. I was kept overnight. Surgery Wednesday, released Thursday.

I use Huy Fong Foods and here is the nutrition info for 1tsp. Good luck.

My surgeon had suggested bypass. I wanted sleeve. He had recommend it as it is malabsorption for life and that would achieve the greatest results he felt. I figured why change the plumbing and was willing to make the changes I needed. He said sleeve was fine as long as i remember that it was not malabosrption for life. After the one year checkup he said I was good and surpassed their expectation of my weight loss, I lost more than was expected from either surgery.

I'm almost 2 years out of surgery. I eat what my family eats only smaller portions and try to keep the carbs low, so if we have a pasta night, I do a 1/4 cup and the rest will be salad, dressings I use and i dip my fork into it then grab lettuce. as for logging we cant always measure but a guesstimate is better then not logging at all, hhen i guesstimate I go higher calories then lower. For work I also keep low calorie protein bars on hand. As for bread I found a multigrain bread that's only 40 calories per slice, so if I have a sandwich I do open face and load up on veggies. Also what surgery did you have @chequitaluv? Your profile says lap-band. Good luck 😀

Judgmental much?

I had to get a new DL as well. I went to a club back in October and the bouncer just looked at it and then me and said really? I had to show him my phone progress pics and he laughed and suggested the DL also.

My Dietitian also had me bump up my calories at 3 months. I was doing 30 minutes of cardio daily and she said I needed the extra calories, otherwise starvation mode kicks on.

Congratulations. You look amazing!

That is the best advice
