I am loving BETTER THINGS and ATLANTA on FX. QUEEN SUGAR is pretty good.

Any suggestions?

I second "This is Us".

I watched Grey's last night - i Have to say that I am impressed. They have done a good job keeping story lines interesting.

New season of Transparent is out on Amazon. I love that show.

Not new, but I am also a Shameless (US version) addict. New season starts Sunday.

Atlanta and Queen Sugar are on my catchup list.

I love Chelsea Handler's new talk show on Netflix, new episodes every Wed, Thurs and Friday. I really like "Better Things" as well, she was so good in "Louie."

We have DVR'd but not watched Designated Survivor. This is not necessarily a fall show, but we watched the Netflix series, Stranger Things recently, and it was SOOOO good! I can't wait for the 2nd season to come out in 2017.

Idk if I can handle any more shows but if they are good, let me know.

Designated survivor is pretty good so far.

American horror story is interesting with a reality show/reenactment theme.

I've been watching, "Bull" and "Rosewood".

So far I'm enjoying them----Of course, "Rosewood" was on last season.

"Bull" is supposed to be based on Dr. Phil's life experiences. I find it fascinating.

Don't care. Surgery is going to give me an extra 0-50 years and I sure as hell am not going to waste them staring at the idiot box.

Besides, I'm sure a huge portion of the people here can blame a good part of their weight gain on a sedentary idiot-box-watching lifestyle in the first place.

You can still enjoy some tv shows or movies even while you are working on losing weight and after having surgery.

I have found that doing some in-place marching or weight training while watching my favorite tv shows helps and actually keeps me motivated. It is kind of like a reward for working out or doing some cardio, and working out is something I have always struggled to do. Yes, a very sedentary lifestyle can lead to some weight gain, but I don't think it means giving up the simple pleasures of watching tv. I do think everyone has their own ways of dealing with that, though.

I hope your WLS journey is going well :)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.
