I'm not saying if u can eat it u should everyone has an opinion and your weight loss is great but hear me out just cause u can eat don't mean u should I'm sure I could too but see u have to remember how u got to what u got to before surgery it's a mind game now oh I'll try this or try that I just don't think pizza pasta sandwichs are good things to choose to eat 2 months out but your your own person but I don't want to put my self in a situation like that cause temptation is a bad thing I kno I quit smoking cigs and eating at the same time I'm only a month and a half out and I'm 55lbs downs again not here to argue this is a forum and I gave my opionion

Italian's And Sunday Dinner
Just wondering how is all the Italians out here are doin with out doing the whole Sunday pasta meal cause the fat guy in me is crying third week wit out my fav meal but my weight loss over powers the meal lmao (also anyone else who does a Sunday dinner or anything else I like to hear doesn't just have to be Italians)

July Sleevers
Glad to hear from more Italians on here I don't think I'll do pasta for a very long time to much carbs then to sugar I mean a taste here and there may not be bad but if I did it all the time I might as well of not got this done and continued to eat like a monster lmao but to each his/her own I'm only 3 weeks out so I'm just learning what I can and can't do
