    popcorn is my go to snack! I make it old school in a pot with coconut oil and then sprinkle some lemon pepper and ground red pepper on it. I don't miss the butter at all. It's delicious!

    mskami77 got a reaction from Alex Brecher in How Has Your Food Budget Changed?   
    I spend about the same but we're a family of 5 and my kids are growing so they eat more to make up for what I can no longer eat. The only thing special I buy for myself is Protein powder/shakes otherwise we all eat the same healthy meals and Snacks.< /p>

    Correct me if I'm wrong...I don't think any of the veterans feel the need to rescue people that don't want to be successful.
    Now that many of the vets feel they are not supported in confronting or giving an opposing perspective. We seem a bit gun shy to respond to many posts.
    I'm now a vet in the distance...I'm not involved like I have been in the past.

    I really like this idea. I'm almost 2 & 1/2 years out and I rarely post or comment because it feels irrelevant to where I am in my journey and what I'm going through.

    One year ago today I stepped out on faith and made the decision to put my health and well-being first. I deserved and my family deserved the best me I could be. I am healthier and happier than I have ever been and; at 62... this is just the beginning! ????????

    We'll be taking 3 family camping trips. We're first time campers so it'll be interesting. In between we will be roller skating, bowling, swimming and hiking. Its great to get out and just do normal stuff with my kids.

    mskami77 reacted to Alex Brecher in Dr Sergio Quinones   
    I don't usually comment on specific surgeons that operate in Mexico. I feel that it's my duty to share what I uncovered about Dr. Quinones, while looking for surgeons to partner with for BariatricPal TeamMX.
    I did a lengthy investigation and found that he uses expired Staplers (see attached invoices) He also uses staples made in china and assembled in Tijuana!
    Besides those two issues....
    - He's had MANY twisted sleeves (+8 in 2 1/12 years that I'm aware of).
    - He's left sponges in patients.
    - Up to 4 patients and companions share 1 bathroom.
    - He's had a patient or two post-op with a bad staph infection.
    The list goes on.....I'd stay as far away from him as possible!

    mskami77 reacted to grandmaofone in Did anyone's insurance call...   
    My hubbies company provides a service were I talk to a nurse about my health. They are from a company called Red Brick Health and from talking to her I have learned a lot because I can pick topics I want to talk about or need help understanding and in the long run it helped get me through the process and get approval faster. And a bonus I received was a $300 gift card to Target to get whatever I wanted. I saved it and got new clothes after I dropped 80 pounds. It was awesome and helped me a lot. Do not be afraid to help yourself along and get through this faster by talking to her.
    By the way I only had my BMI going for me to qualify for surgery.
