Tandooi baked tofu and Indian-spiced fried green tomatoes...can't share the recipes, but I can share they were both AMAZING!

Really neighbor...complaining about noise at 6:30 on a Sunday?? It's not like we're having a rave, we're watching the damn baseball game!

Does anyone know who just did the National Anthem at the World Series? Not really a country fan, but that kid did very well.

How long did it take you to start liking working out?

I still have to force myself to get to the gym everyday, but once I am done working out, I am so happy I went. I agree with everyone. Find something you enjoy, or liked doing back in your "skinnier" days...for me, it is Pilates. I actually had that "v-shape" to my abs when I did Pilates back in the day. I have rediscovered my love for it recently, and I get excited to do it. Alternating in the cardio workouts is what I hate. I find nothing more boring than getting on a treadmill or elliptical machine and doing a 35 minute workout. I load my ipod with great music, which helps a bit, but honestly, it still really sucks. Try out some different things until you find something you do like, or I can guarantee, you won't be as successful. Rent some DVDs from the library, or Netflix has some really good ones on the instant streaming. You can also find sample workouts online. Some fitness centers will offer free aerobics classes. Good Luck! -
I'm not sure if I can be friends with anyone that supports someone who calls himself Black Walnut

After two workouts, I have rediscovered my love of #Pilates...I will have my "v" back in no time!

ditto to everything others have said alread, but I wanted to add my opinion about liposuction and tummy tucks... I am in no way an expert, but have a really good friend that is a plastic surgeon...liposuction and tummy tucks really only work for people that are looking to get rid of those "last 5-10 pounds." From your question, it sounds like you have a bit more to lose than that. If you are going to spend that kind of money, go with the band!

I haven't had any problems with yoga, but I am a little over a year post-op. I do still have problems doing plain old crunches, but yoga doesn't seen to bother me. I would suggest trying it out and start slow. Your body (port site) will tell you if you're not ready yet-trust me!

What's everyone doing on the 29th? If I'm getting a costume, I would like to wear it more than once!

I don't remember when exactly I had my first drink after surgery...probably my birthday, which would have been about four months after my surgery. I would suggest staying away from anything carbonated, and stick to something low-cal. I found the best sugar free margarita mix...I can make an entire pitcher for 300 calories-which is all just the calories of the alcohol!

Still can't breathe out of my nose, so cardio is out of the question
Pilates or Yoga today???
