I'm an idiot. Found a FWB, started having feelings, now he's gone and all I want to do is cry until I throw up and eat cinnamon rolls.

Got started with Match.com and Plenty of Fish. This is hard, why didn't I do it when I was younger?

Good luck! I met my hubby on eHarmony in 2003....big smile! Peas in a pod. I was 46 then. We got married just before my 47th birthday. The site has changed some now, but I liked the way the site worked. I agree with @lisaanewme67 about being selective, don't settle, don't rush, have lots of conversation, WATCH FOR WARNING SIGNS/FLAGS, and Have Fun. Remember: Not every date has to turn into a relationship. And, something someone told me many, many years ago.....don't date someone you wouldn't marry.

I stay so constipated every BM should be logged as "cardio" on myfitnesspal.

Doc appointment today - just regular obese now, and all my labs are perfect
-
Do you count / track the calories in your vitamins and supplements?
-
Guh...swallowed chicken wrong. Won't go down, won't come up, and it HURTS.
-
Who has the best fast food salads? Water main break = can't do dishes, so no cooking for a few days.
-
Just found out I can't have kids. Miss food so much right now. I almost regret surgery because I really want to curl up in a dark room and binge until I pop.

Thanks, everyone. I'm doing the m&m wallow today, and vowing to pull myself out of the dumps and start figuring out what I want to actually DO about it tomorrow. We already started talking possible donor eggs, but I'm going to a fertility center in the area to find out more about maybe how much time I have left to decide while that's still a viable option.

Little things can make a huge difference! Protein shakes are much more drinkable over ice.

The coffee and the pineapple extract both sound delicious - thanks! Have either of you seen the new Fairlife milk? It's got more protein in it than regular milk (13 g for 1 cup vs 8 g). I've been drinking more of that, too. Most of my protein comes from food now, but some days it's just harder to meet that goal than others!
-
I haven't seen the Fairlife milk yet. Will have to look for it. Does it taste like skim milk?
If you haven't already learned this (I had to ask), you can make up your Unjury shake and drink it the next day. I've found this very helpful from a morning time-saving standpoint. Also, I think the shakes taste better when allowed to "bloom" for a while. So many brands of powder say you should drink it immediately.

My Fitbit Zip is coming tomorrow - woohoo!
-
Sleeve is working, so why did I find myself ALMOST biting on some ridiculous miracle weight loss drops one of my friends is using? Dumb, dumb, dumb - get it together, girlie!
-
8 days from my 6 month surgiversary - if I can lose 3 more pounds, I'll be halfway to goal. I might even get a haircut just to take off a few ounces, lol.
-
Finally, officially in size 18 pants . Picked up 2 new pairs and an outfit for the gym as a treat - and accidentally found a dress, too. Someone left it in the dressing room and it fit, so it must've been meant for me, right?
-
60% of my excess weight is gone as of today. According to the surgeon's office, I'm now a textbook success - I'm not done yet, though!

What on earth does Joe's Crab Shack do to 6 little grilled shrimp on a stick to make them over 300 calories??????

I was just shocked when I got home - I thought an ear of corn and a few grilled shrimp was a decent enough choice at my brother's father's day dinner last night - yikes! Gowalking, that might be it - they came with a cup of some sort of flavored butter. I gave it to my niece for her potatoes, so maybe that's where all the calories came from.

10 days, and feeling overwhelmed with preparations.

Yes, breathing is a great place to start....literally. There are many breathing/relaxation and surgery preparation FREE videos out there on-line. I used them and did great with my stress/anxiety. I still use some of the exercises for managing mindful eating. Breathing Is Good!
Best Wishes and remember to keep us posted..

Ahh stop! I got a pair of 10's buttoned! I couldn't sit down or breathe, but I got INTO those bad boys, lol
-
A spoon full of espresso powder and a squirt of caramel Folgers Flavors in some Nectar cappuccino is actually pretty darn good on ice.
-
I'm only counting the doctor's scales as official so not updating ticker, but this morning my home scale showed me down 22 pounds. I'm 10 days out. Wow.
-
6 days left, and my list of to-do's is growing. If I die, I'm going to die with a dirty house.

I have a little longer, my surgery is December 10th. I am doing the same thing with trying to clean out closets and the laundry room and get rid of all the junk and clutter my family has horded. It feels metaphoric to losing the extra weight my body has been carrying around. I have a tendency to get a little OCD with my cleaning lists. I like the idea of hiring someone for the cleaning, but December is not a month with anything extra in the budget. I think we need to give ourselves a little grace and be happy with what we are able to accomplish. I wish you the best in your endeavors!

If I eat any more chicken, I'm going to sprout wings.
-
Cheese is hard to barf up. Won't be trying that again for a while. It's been a tough day.
-
what on earth do restaurants do to grilled chicken to make it make me sick?
-
Went to the movies for the first time since I got sleeved. Fit in the seat like a normal person. It was wonderful
-
I wish there was a software program that would show us what we're going to look like!
