Could be worse, housemate cooks bacon every morning. I can walk by cake...but the smell of bacon drives me wild...didnt know I was hungry till I smell it...and I work from home!

If you see a weird news story of someone beaten to a pulp by a package of bacon...you know why..

I made shrimp wrapped with proscuitto instead. It satisfies my desire for bacon without the fat. Nom nom nom

I make bacon wrapped stuffed jalepeno at least every other week. Yummy.

What do you stuff the jalapenos with Butter? I was thinking of stuffing them with string cheese but I'm not sure.

My wife likes cream cheese in hers and I prefer a bit of good old fashioned cheddar in mine.....usually a dab of shredded 2% sharp....along with a small piece of chicken fajita.

Oh sad day! And with that discard of a luscious red confection, I have a confession....

I had this surgery too soon!

I have never tried a red velvet cake!!! They are everywhere now... As a matter of fact I crossed paths with one yesterday and actually put a call into my husband to have him tell me to walk away :P I did, but not without trying a sample of a cream puff first :D

It doesn't have any kind of a special taste, imo. I made one once and it was basically a chocolate cake recipe with a lot of red food coloring, the icing was better than the cake. Maybe I just had a bad recipe though.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
