    Casey, I think if I was I would tell them just so they know, because whether you tell them or not they will find out eventually, best of luck. Im losing my best friend :/ I hope things go great for you, good luck with your surgery!!

    That is so messed up that people you have known for so many years do that I am glad you have your size 6 friend. I am actually thinking of finding a friend who has also just recently had surgery so we can workout n etc together. Its so hard though.. Hoping I find a friend to share my frrustrations and concerns with Too bad your not in Nebraska we could b buddies But I will defin inbox ya My husband is very handsome and fit, but he has made comments about me losing weight and leaving Of course he accepted me as I was He also supports me 100% percent in everything I set out to do. So they are silly to think we would leave them

    We make it, I love it! Its basically 1 cup split yellow lentils( wash very well) , 1 small onion chopped, 2 cloves fresh garlic, 2 small potatoes with skin chopped in thin circles, 2 carrots chopped in thin circles. Cook onion with 1-2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil. Cook the onion until soft, then add the garlic (chopped). Cook until golden brown. Add 7-8 cups of water. Then add all seasonings. 1 tablespoon cumin powder. 1-2 teaspoon of sea salt. 1-2 teaspoons chicken buiollon powder. Stir well then add all your lentils and veggies in and let cook on medium for about 1 hour and 15 mins or until all lentil and veggies are soft. Then let cool down. Once its cooled add all to your food processer or blender. Blend until all is blended well. Then return to pot. Heat and serve U can garnish with fresh cilantro and lemon juice
