  2. I'm almost four months out and my NUT has encouraged me to eat quinoa. It's very tasty and is a super food.

  5. I get about 800 calories a day. My dr told me to eat only three times a day but my NUT said to eat every two to three hours and don't bother counting calories ( I'm losing weight too fast and it's causing my gall bladder to be a ****** bag) . I don't count carbs but I also don't eat bread or rice often. My NUT had encouraged me to eat quinoa often since its a super food. Good luck to you.
  6. Turkey meat smeared with light French onion laughing cow cheese
  7. Hopefully you're camping somewhere with nice bathrooms! My first days after my surgery were filled with nausea, vomiting and "poo issues". I hope your days go better than that, but it's something to be aware of. Good luck and enjoy!
  8. I'm down 66 lbs since my surgery in April and oh man, I love getting it on! Before my surgery I was always tired and found excuses to not make nookie because things "jiggling" around Now? My hubby walks in the door, in his cute little Air Force uniform and I'm all over him like a dog on a 3 legged cat. Me-ow!
  9. Oh I'm also an astronaut ballerina with a PhD from the local clown college and when I smoke crack I always let it sit out for awhile and then mix it with egg whites. More protein less carbs! Dammit I adore these threads.
  10. Love it! The first time somebody puts in their two cents whether it's advice or opinion, they get picked on for once being fat. Jesus, lemme dig out my prom dress and perm my hair, I think I'm back in high school. And butterbean? You amuse the poop out of me.
  11. Your dr may be willing to prescribe you a mild sleeping pill, like mine did. It did wonders for me, relaxed me enough to get through the test, even with finals the next day.
  12. Thanks! I needed that!
  13. Hello! How many calories do you take in a day? When you're in a weight loss slump do add more calories or less? My NUT confuses me. I've been stuck at the same weight for about two weeks now. I'm three months post op, down 65 lbs and I'm "supposed" to get 800 calories a day. Thanks for your input.
  14. Hello! I was sleeved at Travis AFB on 4/16/12. It took me eight months to get through the process. (sleep study, NUT, psych , echocardiogram , EKG, endoscopy, colonscopy , blood work, blah blah blah). My dr does all three types of surgery, I chose lap band but he suggested the sleeve instead. I never had any issues with tricare. I was 100 lbs overweight and my bmi was 40 no pre existing conditions. I'm sorry tricare is being jerks, I hope my story can help you push your case. Good luck!
  15. I like watermelon vodka and crystal light rasberry peach fiber. Very tasty
  16. I used the appletini with my stuff for my colonscopy. I call booze and crystal light a "skinny b***h"
  17. I love cheese curds!
