Fun fact: Wine is apparently now on the post op liquid diet! Who knew?

I love pickles but every time I eat one. I temporarily gain 2 lbs the next day. I need to find some tasty low sodium ones. It's not the weight that bothers me but more why does my body DO that? grrrr

checking into Bariatric Pal after a LOOONG break. 128lbs down. 4 years out in December. Sleeved Life rocks!

I'm doing good with my fluids (can drink almost normal sips) but not so good with protein. Sending the SO to get something else I can try for protein. The protein shakes aren't cutting it - and Atkins LIft (my backup plan) is nasty!

Why do people have 2 accounts here? iloveorganicmilk1 and GOM123 are clearly the same person.

Officially down 160 pounds! I was already low carb, but I'm finding that my tolerance for carbs is nil. Now, onward to my goal. :-)

Why does it no longer shock me that a large majority of the new topics are about "cheating"? It makes me sad, honestly.

Ugh.

Picked up the two most gorgeous apples at the store today. I got moved on to fruit (and lunchmeat) a little over a week ago. I've been too afraid to try it until now. Going to peel them (which is a shame because I love the skin, but I've seen so many of you comment on issues with the skin) and split it with my other half. Mmmmm apples.

Any Vets FB recommends?

Move over Losers .... make room for me on the bench!!! I'll be there tomorrow! :-) Good luck to all the 18th folks!!!

Now, it seems, I'm a coddling old prude who stares at walls because I don't like cheap chain restaurants.

Y'all. I promise to try harder to tell people like it is. Apparently I coddle people too much.

I have to say - I never expected my experience as a comprehensive sex educator to be useful on this board. LOL.

There was a big fight at the seafood restaurant.... three fish got battered.

It's interesting to me that I am "defensive", "unadult-like", "ashamed", or have my "panties in a bunch" (oh! And a liar, too!) simply because I don't care to openly discuss my weight. Perhaps I should also wear a sign around my neck detailing my income, this morning's bout of diarrhea, a report of my complete sexual history, and all of my religious and political views.
