  1.    SkinnyOnMe reacted to a post in a topic: Cooking After The Sleeve
  2. Go short, modern cut with a lot of layers! Toy could work it! I would say highlights but I don't know how our hair would hold up to color. Maybe a rinse?
  3. Call me a rebel. I try to stay away from fried foods, but my NUT says that it's not a bad thing in moderation. So for the most part I cook at home and I don't fry. But when I eat out- I eat it sometimes. Fried foods were never my particular vice so it doesn't scare me to eat it. Filler foods like rice, pasta, and bread were my vices so those I am scared to death of! Last week my sister made rice with my favorite sauce and I ate a lil. It went down fine like most things but now I am scared to eat rice again. Rice and bread still go down easy for me so I have to treat it like the plague to keep losing.
  4. Never, ever eat Wendy's spicy chicken nuggets post-op. That was a horrendous feeling I had today after attempting to eat them for lunch. Second, I went and donated 11 garbage bags (6big heavy duty) of clothes and shoes that are now huge on me. I am in a 10 from a tight 18. The only thing I kept thinking was that somebody better appreciate my beautiful clothes!!! RIP my fat clothes. [ATTACH]4629[/ATTACH]
  5. Yum! That'll be my next night out.
  6. I chew and chew and chew. It has just become a way of life. I feel better when I do because since I way so little I let the food linger in my mouth longer. Also its better for my digestion
  7. Get off the diet. I read many of these diets sleevers have and I think its unrealistic long term and also could lead to cases like yours. I suggest u continue to do cardio for health but increase your carb and fats. Eat what u want and enjoy food and u will slowlygain the weight back. Once u get close to where u want to be work with ur NUT to develop a realistic maintenance plan.
  8. I wish I ddn't have arthritis so I could run! It seems so freeing and u seem so happy! Congrats on ur success. You are an inspiration.
  9. The generic is just as good. Same active ingredient is the same dosage... just the fillers like chicken guts verses duck guts are different. And I totally understand ur feeling. I went a few days without anything and was up to 1300 cals because of it. So when I got it last night I tok 1 and 2 hours later I was still burningso I took another. I am going to ask my doc to write double the pill so I can do this as needed
  10. Thanks for ur opinions. When I put it in MFP it came up to 1200 cals.. but the tea was bolthouse farms so that was a lot. I also think the fruit and veg idea is something I need to work on. I kinda cut it out of my life to focus on protein 9and I'm a veggie lover. I stopped taking my prevacid 3 days ago because I ran out. If that's why I'm hungry I need to get something asap.
  11. I can easily eat 1400 cals a day and I'm not eating bad.... I don't think. Breakfast- 1.5 servings vanilla chai tea Midmorn- laughing cow light cheese wedge, 8 turkey pepperoni's Lunch- oven "fried" chicken (baked with cornflakes) and spinach Mid afternoon- same as mid morn Dinner- string Beans and 1.5 perdue chicken strips. By the way I am hungry a lot of the day. I also drink a lot of Water. I ca easily drink 10 cups of water and 100grams Protein. input please
  12. My boobs have gone down about 2 or 3 cup sizes. But I now have an itchy scaly rash on the top??? What's going on?
  13. I put my stuff in a separate cabinet and I warned him-- don't go in there or else!! If it is out of his sight in a place he has no reason to go into- there is a good chance that he will stop.
  14. I am excited that reached 198!!! However, not as excited as I thought I would be. I have no cause for celebration, no back flips, no celebratory sugar/fat free cheesecake. I just feel like a little fire has been lit under my ass. Like I feel like- hey I CAN DO THIS! I am so f-ing driven to get to my goal! To the people that are 1 month or less out from surgery- it gets better, much better. I was depressed too- but that number on the scale and my sexy ass outfit I wore to a party yesterday ( I am lucky to have a real coke bottle shape) solidifies my choice. GO VST!!
