What was your answer?

I love wonton bites. So easy and easy on the carbs vs regular tart/pie shells. Yours look nice and even Try brie & cranberry, cream cheese & jalepeño, bacon & fig, blueberries & oat crumble....#yuuuummmm

Well that looks delicious, yum! P.S. Crab fat is is the greenish guts inside a crab’s body cavity (also called Tomalley...you’ll find it in lobsters too). Its a liver-pancreas combo thing. It looks quite disgusting and most people i know wouldn’t touch it with a ten foot pole. But I think it’s delicious, lol. Its also terribly high in cholesterol and not recommended to eat in large portions due the toxins and other filtered stuff in there. But yeah, still delicious 😂

Yep. I’ve dumped on just a little bit fruit a few times in the early months (now, not as much, but occasionally if I have a lot at once or eat some on an empty stomach) I believe its the high sugar content.

Same. I requested a couple days ago, and still waiting, lol

So this gigantic salad is a whopping 52 calories for the entire thing, LOL. I ate it for both lunch and dinner. At lunch it was just salad, but for dinner I also had a few pieces of sashimi (+200 cals) and about 2 tbsp of crab fat (+155 cals) and a glass of red wine (+172 cals)

I started 2 weeks before surgery. I was supposed to be on 3 protein shakes a day, which I did most of the time, but there were days (near the end of the two weeks especially) that I only managed to take in 2 shakes...which was weird. Other than water, didn't have anything else. Also, I didn't have any issues with low blood sugar...at least nothing noticeable.

I think generally, the first place you put fat on is the last place it comes off.

Did the patio thing last night and wore my newly guerilla-altered skirt. Its a stretchy-jersey material that I got in Size Large last year. It couldn’t even sit on my hips, so I added 4 sad looking darts at the waistband, but since the top folds over, they are nicely hidden. I failed to consider shortening the length so spent alot of time holding it up cuz i kept stepping on the hem! Had a fun time regardless. I heart summertime ❤️

Had Drumstick ice cream cones on the brain, but settled for strawberries and vanilla whipped cream instead: 304 calories Joke’s on me though, turns out the strawberries and cream were more calories than the Drumstick (which is 300 calories for a whole one). On the bright side for me, though, is that the strawberries were only 5g carbs vs. the 36g of the Drumstick) Whatever. It was delicious 😋

Plus it’s muggy AND humid AND raining here today. Boo. Heading out to go grocery shopping though. The cargo pants belong to the the Kid. She’s been pinching clothes from my closet lately, so I’m returning the favour.

OK, truth be told, I didnt eat any of this myself, but it smelled sooooooo good that Im gonna post it anyway! (I have a patio date tonight, so Im saving myself for the inevitable alcohol calorie consumption 🤣) Made a Brie & Roasted Fig Croissant melt with some honey for the fam 532 calories to each of them, LOL.

Another restaurant-worthy looking dish! #yum I have been missing all your fab creations...keep ‘em coming. ❤️

Whoa! Thats alot? I’m at 2500 every two weeks... (I really have no idea what is alot though...)

Whoa! Someone’s got some some booty goin’ on 🥰🥰🥰 Very nice looking backside, Sophie!!!!

You can totally do it ❤️

So I meant to post something like this at my 18 month surgiversary, but first I forgot, then I got lazy, lol. Finally finished putting this together tonight (about 2 weeks late, oopsies), and seeing it finished, I wish I was more consistent/regular with taking pictures of my progress during weight loss phase...but I think the end result collage is still pretty cool. Height: 5'1.8" HW/SW: 235 GW: 120 127 (updated May 27) Surgery Date: 24-Oct-2018 2 wks Pre-op: -11.8 M1: -21 M2: -17 M3: -13.2 M4: -11.1 M5: -10.3 M6: -12.5 M7: -9.5 Goal Reached: 27-May-2019 (7m post-op) M8: -9.6 M9: -2.8 M10: -2.2 M11: (+1.6) M12: -2.6 * 1 YEAR POST-OP WEIGHT: 113.0 lbs * * 1.5 YEAR POST-OP WEIGHT: 115.0 lbs *

Before and After Lunch Salad: Romaine, spinach, cucumber, red onion, cheddar, roast chicken, bacon, vinaigrette. 265 calories for the whole thing...I ate about 2/3 of it. Also an espresso martini beforehand: +141 calories.

...another thing to consider: incorporate B12 into your vitamin regime...

Actually, my spray of choice was AquaNet with helping of pomade at the roots 😂😂. Carried a can of it everywhere I went (and we are talking full-size, not travel size!) along with a ridiculous amount of makeup and a tease comb. How I miss those gaudy days. Sigh. ...and perms! P.S. Sorry, ozone layer!

Kung Pao Tofu, Plain Fried Tofu & Kung Pao Chicken. Garlic Fried Rice w/ Peas on the side. I ate 6 Kung Pao Tofu pieces + 6 Plain Fried Tofu pieces: 241 calories I also ate 1/3 cup deluxe mixed nuts (not shown): 225 calories. Edited to add: Oh, and I had a couple bites off the top of Mr.’s Fudge Drumstick Ice Cream Cone (approx 1/4 of whole thing): 75 calories.

I generally get lethargic (or worse, i.e., dumping) when I have processed carbs. Try taking note if what foods trigger it and stay away for a while. You can re-introduce at a later time. Rinse & repeat...

Is that first column after description the number of carb grams?
