We just got back last night from a four-day trip to Reno via the California Zephyr. The train ride was slow and expensive compared to driving, but very scenic. It was good to do it once, but I don't think we'll repeat the experience.

For the whole four days, I snacked like crazy. I didn't eat anything particularly bad, but I just kept feeling hungry. I also finally got my first glass of wine. Thank goodness for my sleeve. Without it, I probably would have been eating a lot more at each sitting, making this a disastrous departure from my normal eating patterns. But instead, I weighed the same when I returned as I did the day I left. So I got away with it this time. I know I'll have to work on controlling the urge to snack while on vacation, though. I can't rely on the surgery to save me from bad habits.

I totally get this. I just got out of a 25ft RV that hubby and adult son have been living in while our modular home was being completed. I recuperated from surgery on the 6th of May in there and because I wasn't working it was hard to just SIT. I couldn't pick up anything to heavy or physically start moving stuff into the house - so glad we decided to start "squatting" in OUR house last Friday. Back at work today and it has been nice - no food commercials and walking around, moving around....love it! NO REGRETS!!!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
