Best ribs EVER



Recommended Posts

I found a place in Memphis that has the best ribs that I've ever eaten. Now, I've never before seen the appeal of eating ribs. Most of the ones that I've had in the past were not worth the effort it took to get what little meat there was off of them. They were either lacking in meat or had large amounts of fat on them. But these, these were HEAVENLY. So if you're ever in Memphis, you NEED to go to Cozy Corner. Of course, I was only able to eat two ribs, but they were DELICIOUS.

That would be awesome! Seriously, we need to get a bunch of the LBTers together. Just not in the next month or so, 'cause I'm already about to pull my hair out because of stress. Hell, it wouldn't take much, it's already shedding like mad because I'm about to freak out, between grad school, teaching, and looking for jobs.

Best place EVER for ribs is in North Carolina, callled Wilber's. When Bill was president, he ate there often. The town got closed down for a 5 mile radius near it. It sucked because he ate there all the freaking time, lol...and I never could when he was there!

BTW, shouldn't WE BOTH be studying??? lol...

You're welcome! How is your restriction? You losing 1-2 lbs a week? You must be down a size or 2 now?
My restriction is pretty good, I think. I can eat just about anything (other than lots of soft bread, anyway). I'm just over 5 months out (as of yesterday), so I'm averaging between 1-2 pounds a week. Of course, sometimes I lose several very quickly and then wait a few weeks before I lose anymore, but I'm happy with it. Yep, I'm down a size, to an 18, and I'll be at a 16 in a few more pounds (my pants are pretty loose, but the 16s are still a little tight).

I should be, but I felt like taking a break. :) I can only read ornithology textbooks for so long before I go crosseyed. :faint:

Abnormal psych actually sounds pretty interesting.

The exams I'm taking are my grad school comprehensive exams (taken after all course-work for the degree is finished), so I've gotta do well or else I won't be getting my degree next year. Nice bit of pressure, huh?

Grad school's worth it, I think. For the most part, it's been enjoyable, with only a few moments of true "tear your hair out" stress. You get to take all the interesting classes in grad school!

      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.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
