1 all fresco roasted red pepper and asiago sausage, and 1/4 cup part skim ricotta... A squeeze of pizza sauce and a sprinkle of parm. 24 grams protein! ....yeah, that's right.

Last Sunday I did not sit on the coach and veg while watching football. My daughter and I went out and played. Then the whole family went shopping at an outdoor outlet mall. I dont shop because shopping is evil and it seperates me from my money however I was able to walk around and enjoy the time with the family.

I bought this awesome pair of pants 6 months ago from J. Crew making them my 'goal' pants since I had never been able to fit anything from that store. They have been in the back of the closet where I forgot about them. Found them and tried them on last night...loose!!!!!!!

Went to the PCP today and I came off all the Crestor! I now only have one diabetic pill left; a 5mg Onglyza. My a1c was 6.6. She said when its under 6 ill come off the onglyza! I go back in six weeks for another test . Praise The Lord!!!

Water. :-)

This is hands down the BEST explanation I have ever seen for the
"30/30" rule - no drinking 30 minutes before or after eating. There are very good reasons for that rule and this short video explains it all!!

I'm still here too. Had my surgery July 1st. Down 86 pounds so far. Feeling great! Best thing I've ever done for myself.

I hope everyone is doing well. I broke my android tablet so I have not been on here in a while.
Things have been going well for me. I am down a total 85lbs since starting my pre-op diet in July. I have not had any dumping which I attribute to Soccermom's advice of making sure you have protien in your stomach if you are going to treat yourself. For example I had a 30gram protien shake yesterday and about 10 minutes after drinking it I treated myself to half an Oreo.
This by far has been one of the best decisions I have ever made! I will try to get on here more with my work computer and my wifes home computer because I would like to hear how everyone else is doing.

I'm a year out and I still don't feel real hunger. I just have set eating times.

I think I was about 3 months when I started having a weird "hollow" feeling. Now at 4months I feel hunger again. Never as strong as before of course but its returned. I often would forget also in the early stages and then it's was more of the I just was blah on food.

282 lbs.... down 6 this week

Its always great to get to that next phrase

I just had my 5 week appointment and am officially on phase 3 of the diet..... happy happy happy

Laying on my side on the couch watching a movie, my 9 year old snuggles up with his head on my hip and says 'Ahhhhh, you're so snugly and comfy....except for that big hard bone poking out of your hip right here. Where did this come from? It didn't used to be here!'

I grew up with 4 brothers. When my mom started to feel unappreciated by my dad and us boys she would go on strike. It absolutely sucked. Dad was in charge of everything and he would assign it all out among all off us. We would do whatever it took to get mom off strike and then try to keep her from doing it again.

Starting my 8 week post op. Down 50.8! Been traveling alot for work so it's been a challenge eating out...but what I am doing seems to be working. I still struggle getting my Protein in every day!
