@Band07. Why are you revising, if I may ask?

@@Alex Brecher. Totally agree. I drink lactose/fat free milk, eat eggs and full fat cheese. I also eat about a cup of homemade salt free popcorn a few times a week. Before my surgery I ate MANY cups, MANY nights. But my main foods are lean proteins and broccoli. So, dieting, including the paleo, and the many others I tried, still let me to surgery. Why? volume. I was eating too much. No matter how healthy the foods. I was eating too much. Now I eat, feel my restriction, and stop. I'm so happy I chose this gift for myself.

I'm not following ANY diet, and never will again!

I'm obviously missing a great show. What rock have I been hiding under?

@Jaxxx. Great! Happy for you!

@chunkymonkey86122. How tall are you? I'm 5'3 and 150lbs.

Ok, exhale, then work this approval process like it's your JOB! Call then, visit then at the office and smile each time! Best!

Ok, where are the pics?

Ok, I'm selling my house and moving to MI. Tummy tuck here I come!

@JustWatchMe. Yeah!!!!! Good for you! I was humbled by your post. I celebrate with you and wish you peace and blessings.

Strawberries and blueberries doesn't bother me. I recently added a small amount a few times a week about 10 days ago. So good. I'm so tired of eating meat and fish.

I no longer need a wide. Thank you lord! Unfortunately, I'm still a size 11. I got to that size by the time I had my third child. I used to be a 10W. But no worries, I've been able to find some great shoes and can't seen to stop buying shoes, some I may never wear!

@laurenella82. Nine West girl!

I'm still in trying to get to goal so I'm no expert, but at 8months I still basically eat protein first and then a small amount of veggies as I have space left. I don't make any complicated meals. I eat chicken, eggs and salmon. I also drink fat free milk and sometimes small amounts of raw almonds. Every few days I eat a couple of strawberries and blueberries. ....yum! Best.

OMG! Please, yes, EVERYTHING in this whole world causes cancer. And 45 yrs old female who was a vegan with no family history, nursed her baby, was normal weight and exercised regularly dies from breast cancer. A 2 pack a day heavy drinker 87 yr old man dies after falling. Yeah, no lung or throat cancer! The air you are breathing right now can cause cancer! @@Tauruslady5

Sorry for the misery you experienced. I have my colonospy at the end of this year. Yeah, I'm starting to get terrified. I'm wondering if I'll probably have a similar experience. As it is I currently don't even drink 64 ounces a day.

Your response could be, "I wish I had never said a darm word to you!"

Cheetos? This may not be the best choice right now, 60 % stomach removal or not. Best on this journey.

But I'm losing my weight VERY slowly. There have been no huge monthly losses from the very beginning. At 7 months I've averaged about 9 pounds a month, with zero lost in October, 7 pounds this past January, and 6 pounds so far this month. Maybe my modest lost makes a difference. Best.

Haven't lost a strand at 7 months out. I've had three c sections, major hernia repair surgery and vein stripping surgery on both legs. Never lost a strand those times either. My protein intake has been modest.....about 60 grams most days. I take regular vitamins.

I'm seven months out and I very rarely go over 800 cals a day. When I do it's a gym day and I'm burning 500 to 600 cals. I then add a banana or fiber one cookie for the extra carb and calories, and of course for the extrs treat, Lol. Also, I eat plenty and don't think I could get to 1200 at this point.

@JerzyTomato74. Fiber ones are great. I save them for my work out days and eat them about a half hour before I begin my workout

16 years old!!!!

I make popcorn at home, on the stove with olive oil and no added salt. Yum! I was told to refraim from it in the very beginning. I don't overindulge, but I do enjoy it ever so often. It's a slider for me, so I am mindful.

@heav85TV. Rant on, we got you.
