I honestly thought I was the only one that did that. . I will do my before and after pics when I can finally get 'Before pics' that I wasn't hiding behind people, or didn't take from a 'favourable' camera angle. Might need friends to send me random/candid pictures

I am cleared for foods but I can only eat every little. I have tried some solids that have come right back up. I am going to try drink more Protein. I must admit them when I drink it it leaves me satisfied for a couple of hours.

You look gorgeous [emoji7][emoji7][emoji7]

MY surgery is on February 15th! Any last minute tips or advise are greatly appreciated! I'm beyond nervous!

I was excited yesterday taking photos for before & future after's. Today I'm just so anxious for tomorrow questioning why I'm making myself do this surgery & putting myself through this??? Nervous for the surgery & anesthesia horrible literally want to cry.

Looking good! Keep up the great work. Please tell us more about your workout schedule. Thanks!

Looking good girl!!

I either measure everything, or know by the size bowl that I used to measure into (for instance cottage cheese fits nicely in half of one of my travel containers.) interestingly enough I have bowls from the 1950s that fit the exact amounts of many of the foods I eat. I noticed at one of my stalls that I wasn't eating enough calories.

It can all be very confusing!! Are you still trying to lose weight or are you at maintenance? I think that will make a huge difference. You are right that it's hard to find options that are both low in carbs and fats. Sometimes we have to create our own recipes. I saw one recently that looks really good, that might help you with your taco craving. I saw where someone took cheddar cheese and spread it out on parchment paper. They put it in the microwave and melted it. Then they laid the melted cheese on the paper, over an upside down bowl. The cheese hardened and formed like a bowl. After it hardens, fill the "cheese bowl" with all the ingredients used for a taco. I'll see if I can find the recipe and attach it.
