Unfortunately, I don't have any children. Are you on a monthly OB schedule right now? That's very cool to hear a wee heartbeat! Poor thing had to eat gravy, blech!

If there's one unifying factor for most reasonable Americans, it would have to be gravy. Gravy = nector of the gods, right America?

*America: Right, plain.

See, there you have it, SNT. America has spoken.

Not this America. I think gravy ranges from just okay to disgusting.

Mac, I'm a little surprised....I thought for sure a very educated person such as yourself would fall squarely in the pro-gravy camp. Perhaps some links to studies that have shown how beneficial gravy is would persuade you?

Probably not... It doesn't rank high enough on the "MacMadame Is it Worth it?" scale.< /p>

This scale is modeled after Barney Stimson's Crazy vs. Hot scale for rating women. Simply put, the crazier a woman is, the hotter she has to be for it to be okay. Only for my scale, it's calories vs. taste. The more calories it has, the better it has to taste or it doesn't rise above the break-even line.

If it is of the sausage variety smothering any sort of Breakfast type food...absolutely.

unfortunately, in this instance, it was weight watchers gravy ... so neither tasty nor high-caloric ... so i guess it kinda evens itself out...

at least it's not like those crazy Canadians (im married to one) who eat not only gravy but cheese curds on their fries ... :crying:

(Wow. The things I miss when I go to bed early.)

Mmm...gravy. I like the cream kind over biscuits.

Suddenly my Slim Fast doesn't seem so appealing.

You have to read that in a Sean Connery voice to be effective.

Sean Connery could read anything to me and I'd be in a ...um...blissful state. Such a beautiful distinctive voice, such a lovely accent....:crying:

There is NO right place for gravy...blech!

And ketchup goes with 2 foods only: french fries; and grilled cheese sandwiches.

Losingjusme: YEAH!!! on hearing the wee one's heartbeat.

      Sometimes reading the posts here make me wonder if some people just weren't mentally ready for WLS and needed more time with the bariatric team psychiatrist. Complaining about the limited drink/food choices early on... blah..blah...blah. The living to eat mentality really needs to go and be replaced with eating to live. JS

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.
